STILLWATER, Okla. – Oklahoma State University’s Master of Science in Industrial Engineering and Management has been ranked number three by OnlineColleges.com for online colleges in industrial engineering in the United States.
“The MS program in IEM is a highly competitive program that produces students with strong optimization and data analytics skills who are sought after by employers such as 3M, Amazon, Apple, Dell, Home Depot, Mercedes-Benz, Tesla, and scores of other companies large and small,” said Sunderesh S. Heragu, Regents Professor, Head and Humphreys Chair for IEM. “We have top-notch faculty offering courses in applied statistics, data analytics, logistics, management, operations research, supply chain management, and many other areas, making it a highly successful graduate program at OSU.”
In this program, students have the opportunity to learn about industrial engineering from both a broad and a narrow perspective, with particular attention to the business and social parameters of the field; the university's website stresses that "industrial engineering is the most people-oriented discipline within the engineering family," and the priorities of its program reflect this viewpoint. Undergraduate courses in engineering are also available online, for those who are working their way up to the master's level.
