A significantproportion of respondents (more than 88%) believe that the first five characteristics areimportant. A Chi-square test has provided sufficient evidence to indicate that there is astatistically significant difference between industry and education perspectives in a few desiredcharacteristics. The industry put more emphasis than education on the leadership awareness andhuman dimension of management. Education put more emphasis than industry on the system ofsystems.Table 2: Statistical results on emerging topics

ergonomics. Fraser’s 121 credit hour “generic”plan of study, which she feels describes most IE programs, includes two related courses: threecredit hours of “work methods” and three credit hours of “human factors.” Some portion of theseIE programs require only one three-credit-hour course that covers both work methods and humanfactors topics. IE programs may also offer advanced topics in ergonomics that are available aselectives to undergraduate students. There is also a subset of IE undergraduate programs thathave no required courses in these areas; Fraser’s numbers indicate that this is only about 10% ofABET accredited IE programs.Under the premise that ergonomics is an important subject in an undergraduate IE education, theinitial goal of this

The need to raise awareness about theenvironmental impact of decisions in manufacturing and product design should be at theforefront of curriculum enhancement efforts. Industrial Engineers are typically viewed as“systems thinkers” and need to analyze the larger eco-system when new designs are putin place. Thus, the systems-approach to environmentally responsible design andmanufacturing has a natural place in the Industrial Engineering curriculum.The challenge to engineering faculty may

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.

The programshave much in common, but differ in their focus on different industries and on different tools.Some programs seem to have been designed to meet the needs of specific industries and even ofspecific companies. We use these findings to support conclusions about the nature of systemsengineering education and to make recommendations to industrial engineering

that is not captured in the FE Examtopic list. Additional domains and/or topics are often added at the discretion of the program.Such additional areas of expertise may offer a uniqueness that sets the program apart fromothers. However, if there is more uniqueness than foundational topics, the program may considerchanging the title of the program to something that more appropriately fits their unique offerings.The first step in the review is to identify all core and elective courses that reside within thedepartment. It may be appropriate to include core courses from other departments when they areprerequisite to the discipline-specific knowledge core.
