Technologies into the Industrial Engineering CurriculumAbstractIncorporation of powerful “scripting languages” in engineering modeling software is becomingincreasingly common. Unfortunately, while most engineering curricula include one or twoprogramming-related courses at the freshman and/or sophomore level, students generally showweak computer programming skills when they reach the core curriculum courses. This projectseeks to develop an innovative set of classroom modules involving computer programming foruse throughout the Industrial Engineering curriculum.
