On behalf of the students, staff and faculty; I welcome you to the Department of Industrial
Engineering (IE) at Clemson University. From our humble beginnings
in 1983 we have evolved into a highly productive department
with strong national and international reputation. Our faculty
is well known for its cutting-edge research in the information
technology driven emphasis areas of production and service
systems, human factors and education and learning systems.
However, we continue to strive for greater excellence in industrial engineering education,
research and service. Being the only IE program in the State
of South Carolina we provide a significant pool of IE’s
for the state and the nation as a whole.
The IE program offers accredited programs leading to Bachelor
of Science (B.S.), Master of Science (M.S.) and Doctor of
Philosophy (Ph.D.), degrees in industrial engineering. Because
of the broad nature of our discipline our graduates are
widely sought by a multitude of industries ranging from
manufacturing (e.g., automotive, electronics, chemical)
to service (information technology, aviation, financial,
consulting). One of the defining characteristics in the
success of our graduates is the dedication of our staff
and faculty. By working closely with our external constituents,
the faculty has developed an innovative industrial engineering
curriculum that reflects the state of the art in industrial
engineering education and the needs of the profession. A
defining attribute of our program is the ability of our
faculty to develop student strengths in basic industrial
engineering knowledge, use of industrial engineering tools,
problem solving, computer skills, communication and teamwork
thereby preparing them for careers in industrial engineering.
We are extremely proud of our alumni, current students and
the status of our department. Alumni are strongly encouraged
to visit the Alumni Corner
to review postings of other alumni and place notes there
about themselves.
Enjoy navigating through the department’s web site. We
welcome your feedback and please share your thoughts with
us. You can do so by clicking my link at the bottom of this
