Accreditation | IE and PDME, College of Engineering, WSU

The Bachelor of Science program in Industrial Engineering is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, https://www.abet.org, under the General Criteria and the Program Criteria for Industrial and Similarly Named Engineering Programs.

Within a few years after graduation, Industrial Engineering graduates are expected to:

• Apply industrial engineering expertise to address challenges in designing, analyzing, implementing, managing, and/or improving systems in manufacturing, services, and emerging sectors.
• Engage in professional growth through advanced education, certifications, professional engagement, and adaptation to emerging technologies and industry practices.
• Demonstrate leadership, ethical responsibility, and collaboration that create value for organizations and society.

Our undergraduate students will attain:

1. an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.
2. an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
3. an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
4. an ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.
5. an ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
6. an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
7. an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
