Title of the Programme
The programme shall be Bachelor of Engineering in Industrial Engineering and Management B.EngM. (CEM)
- Background
Industrial Engineering attracts countless international students annually. It promises the best of Engineering and Business. It gives undergrads key notions about the design, planning and optimization of production and manufacturing processes. That’s the core of an Industrial Engineering Bachelor’s degree.
Stay tuned as we look at the bigger picture and give you more details about what Industrial Engineering is, why you should study Industrial Engineering, what to expect from such a degree, and what your career prospects would be after graduation. The Industrial Engineering & Management Bachelor’s degree program offered at IST combines engineering studies with business components. The program provides an interdisciplinary education in technological and natural sciences, infused with business expertise, social and soft skills, as well as practical experience. Students, thus, learn to solve complex problems at the interface of production and management.
- Justification
The Bachelor in Industrial Engineering and Management from IST Burkinafaso gives students the knowledge regarding technology that can be applied to the organizational level of a company.
Students are given the task of creating new technologies and turning these into useable solutions. Students need to be able to analyse a problem, develop a solution, and taken into consideration a company’s abilities and constraints: finance, planning, logistics, and people.
The skills gained during the engineering and management degree allows students to pursue careers in management and technology. The most popular career choices include product managers, process technologists, and working in the service sector or the government.
Would this degree work for you? Industrial Engineering and Management is for you if:
- Are good at science subjects
- Want to combine technology and business studies
- Are good at working with others
- Can views things from a broad perspective
- The targeted group includes holders of:
-Advanced Level Certificate of Education;
-Diplomas in Engineering and other related Science and Technology fields;
-Degrees in the Physical Sciences and other Related.
- General Objectives
Our Industrial Engineering and Management (IEM) undergraduate program prepares students with the tools they need to become engineers and managers in all areas of the construction industry.
- Specific Objectives
Upon graduation, IE students will be able to demonstrate:
- an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics
- 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
- an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audience
- 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 context
- an ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objective
- an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions
- an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies
Duration of the Programme: 4 years and one Year for advanced Diploma student
