Industrial and systems engineers (ISE) design, enhance and manage complex, large-scale data-driven processes and systems to inform decision making. Involving both people and technology, ISEs help companies use resources effectively to solve complex problems. ISEs use computer-based tools to analyze information and present solutions, by combining engineering expertise with a business perspective. Companies seek ISEs for their expertise in understanding, evaluating and improving the performance of entire technical and business systems. Because of its versatility, an ISE degree opens doors for careers in business, health care, consulting, government and manufacturing.
