About the course

Industrial and Human Factors Engineering (IHE), a highly customizable degree in the College of Engineering and Computer Science, prepares working professionals towards effective design and operation of a variety of systems in healthcare, manufacturing, aerospace, distribution, retail, and many others. While industrial engineers utilize the tools of simulation, optimization, computing, and statistics to design and improve modern technology-laden systems, human factors engineers design systems that effectively integrate human abilities/limitations and machines/tools. Because students enrolled in the program are diverse in both geography and work-profile, eligible students are able to complete the M.S.I.H.E. degree entirely online. The BIE department offers both a Master of Science degree and a Ph.D. in Engineering focus area in IHE. The Master of Industrial and Human Factors Engineering program has a non-thesis alternative in addition to the traditional thesis option. Students choose their coursework in one of four available focus areas: Decision Analytics, Logistics and Supply Chain, Human Factors and Ergonomics, and Neuroengineering. All focus areas offer hands-on courses and laboratories in state-of-the-art research facilities in the Russ Engineering Center and the Neuroscience Engineering Collaboration Building.
