Dear Industrial Engineering Undergraduate Students,
Welcome to Industrial Engineering and congratulations on selecting a discipline that will prepare you for a rewarding and relevant professional career for a lifetime! The vision of our program is to be a nationally-competitive, student-centered, Industrial Engineering program serving Arkansas and the world through undergraduate and graduate studies, through leading-edge research programs, through contributions to the profession, and through our unique access to major organizations with world-class logistics and distribution operations. To be a model program providing a broad, personalized undergraduate experience, contemporary graduate and professional programs, and research emphasizing the application of quantitative modeling and analysis. To be leaders in the industrial engineering profession. The objective for our undergraduate program is to prepare students for successful industrial engineering careers in the private and public sectors of a global economy; and for advanced studies in high quality graduate programs.
The department faculty and staff are committed to your success while you are a student at the University of Arkansas and beyond. You likely have many questions about opportunities available to you within the department and about meeting all degree requirements to graduate on time. This undergraduate student handbook is here to help answer many, if not all, of your questions. Please review it and refer to it regularly throughout your academic studies to help keep you on track. If there is something that you don’t understand or is not clear in the handbook, then please contact your advisor. Dr. Rossetti, Associate Department Head, and Dr. Cassady, Undergraduate Program Studies Chair, are also available to assist you. Wishing you a successful experience here in Industrial Engineering!
All the best,
Dr. Ed Pohl Department Head and 21st Century ProfessorDepartment of Industrial Engineering
