. Page 22.1544.7Research was done to identify patterns related to the organization’s stage of quality systemimplementation. Some interesting results related to stages were: Stage 6 - Very High use of Benchmarking and Cause and Effect Diagrams Top two levels - Very High use of Mistake Proofing, Flow charts, and Gage R&R studies Factor Analysis for top two stages combined: Factor 1 - Data driven design and robust design (35.6%) Factor 2 - Process control (21.7%) Factor 3 - Variation reduction and prevention (20.1%) Factor 4 - Problem diagnosis and process improvement (19.8%)Research Question 4 - Is there a relationship between executive awareness and corporate use ofstatistical methodologies and customer satisfaction

the fall semester of 2010, Stephen developed and taught a cross-listed undergraduate and graduate level course on simulation- based modeling and design using computational fluid dynamics. Prior to being at South Dakota State University, Stephen worked with the Simulation, Modeling, and Decision Science Division at Iowa State University’s Virtual Reality Application Center. His research while at these institutions included modeling complex multiphase fluid flows and systems of models to optimize engineering designs of energy systems. Stephen has been a coordinating instructor for undergraduate engineering laboratories, including fluid mechanics and heat transfer laboratories. Also, Stephen is actively involved with

engineering. Thereafter,we will study whether their use has impacted industrial engineering education. We willalso examine some commonly used websites to determine how important the knowledgeof buzzwords is for potential employers of industrial engineering graduates. Finally, wewill attempt to determine whether buzzwords confuse students or help them gain a clearvision of industrial engineering. Based on our analysis, we will formulate our ownrecommendations for use of buzzwords in industrial engineering curriculum. While wehave used the word “buzzword” we realize that this word has emotive overtones, and wecontinue to search for a replacement.IntroductionBuzzwords or buzz phrases within the scientific and management community can beloosely defined
