Career Opportunities
Many believe that working areas of industrial engineers only confined to the production sector, but this point of view is wrong, there are multiple working areas suitable for the IE. An IE can work in different sectors such as productive enterprises (factories), service-institutions (banks, hospitals, insurance companies, municipalities and consultancy institutions and others), and can improve these sectors during the planning, implementation and control processes. These processes constitute the general framework of the successful management process that leads to the achievement of the mission and objectives of the institution in an optimal and economically feasible way.
The education and knowledge of an IE can benefit the company or the institution as follows:
- Building an organizational structure of the institution so that it shows the primary and secondary functions, and defines the roles of employees through the institution.
- Developing and improving human resources through the development of a plan to improve their abilities, and optimize their work.
- Problem solving, for example (the problems that occur during the production process), using computerized technology and mathematics.
