Program Introduction:

Industrial Engineering is concerned with the plan, design, development & improvement of integrated system made up of men, methods & machines. Institute of Industrial Engineers (IE) describes that Industrial Engineers figure out how to do things better. They engineer processes and systems that improve quality and productivity. They work to eliminate waste of time, money, materials, energy, and other commodities. Many people are misled by the term "Industrial Engineer". The industrial does not mean just manufacturing. It encompasses service industries as well. It has long been known that industrial engineers have the technical training to make improvements in a manufacturing setting. Now it is becoming increasingly recognized that these same techniques can be used to evaluate and improve productivity and quality in service industries. The graduates of the B.Sc. Industrial Engineering and Management program of IQTM, University of the Punjab, Lahore are expected to be characterized by the following qualities after their graduation.
