Best Job in my life .. can't believe they pay me to do this. Landed the Job by proxie they pulled me into engineering after working in 5 industrial trades over 30 years at the same company.. I got so lucky and so thankful. Can't wait to go to work everyday.
Great video! I am am Industrial Engineer and it is a exciting career but what a lot of people don't talk about is that you need have good negotiation & people skills. You will be doing a lot of Kaizen projects as well. That's why I believe in teaching new IE's this when I meet them.
Thank you for the great qaulity video. I have been looking into industrial engineering alot. I want to know how much does finance and business play a part in an inustrial engineers life? And what is the demand for industrial engineers?
It all is going to depend on the kind of job you take on after getting a degree, but of all the engineering disciplines you can learn, Industrial Engineering is one of the best suited for business and finance. I knew someone with an IE degree who went straight into a finance role, although that is not as common. Typically many Industrial Engineers eventually become managers at their manufacturing plants or offices and this is when you would see much more business and finance be involved in the job. Starting out, including business and finance into your process improvement projects will make you a stronger engineer and will help you work better with the other departments at your work.
thanks for a great video ! would it be helpful if i have a master's in Industrial Engineering and a bachelor in mechanical engineering ? would it help me to be a better industrial engineer ?? like do those 2 branches work together well ?!
Yes those two degrees would pair very well together! I would say at of all the engineering types out there, Industrial is the most similar to Mechanical. Having a background in mechanical engineering would help you design and create some of the solutions that you think of when working as an industrial engineer.
Could you give me some examples and more background information on computer aided design and mechanical analysis? I am very into the idea of process improvement, but I also firmly believe that a process can be improved based on the mechanical analysis and design of a product. Does an industrial engineer improve the product mechanics/design for a better process?
You are completely correct when you say that a process can be improved based on mechanical analysis and design of the product. Doing a failure analysis on a design is a great way to lower cost of bad quality and increase productivity early on! Some Industrial Engineers are involved in this process, but often times they hand that work off to a mechanical/design engineer. When I was an IE I often helped determine the root cause of an issue with a mechanical engineer and then helped them brainstorm some solutions, but ultimately they made the designs and fixes. The amount of hands-on work you get to do will vary by role/company. CAD involves a lot of classes and experience to get good at, but it is an essential tool used by many engineers. My GD&T video goes into some of the concepts used in CAD.
Question I’ve been dealing with: once Robots start taking over people’s jobs in the processes, will there even be a need for IEs anymore? Would manufacturing plants require less IEs then, making there demand go down? Help me clarify this. Maybe I’m not seeing something
Automation is definitely going to be a giant challenge for humanity that will require us to adapt and reorder our society and possible jobs/careers. Because industrial engineers are focused on all things processing (people, machines, materials, layouts, etc.) there will still be jobs for industrial engineers when there is more automation, but how an IE works and what is important to learn/apply will certainly change in the coming years
hello thanks alot for this video..i am currently doing this course i will like you to be my mentor to guide me through...THANKS greatly waiting on your reply...
You have to have a problem solving brain, but you can learn to have this type of brain by taking a few classes in Industrial Engineering or learning about different industrial engineering toolsets (Fishbone, 5 Why, Statistics, Work Sampling, etc.) or any projects that are related to process improvement

I love hearing things like this!
Salary?
Quite relevant info and slowly enough explained. Got a new subscriber!
Thanks! Glad to hear it!

We are using this video to answer our modules.
Glad to hear it!
IE - Improve the efficiency of engineering systems.

Beginning Engineers, thank you so much for the feedback. Can i ask for your email adress for further communications?
Message me on the back end of my channel and we can get a dialogue going.
maps charts exciting we doing something.
So interesting
thanks for a great video !

IE + Electric =?
career?
Hi this is my first year with studying Industriel Engineering. Do you have any suggestion to improve myself? What should I do at 1st grade?
Could you give me some examples and more background information on computer aided design and mechanical analysis? I am very into the idea of process improvement, but I also firmly believe that a process can be improved based on the mechanical analysis and design of a product. Does an industrial engineer improve the product mechanics/design for a better process?

Beginning Engineers thank you.
Bro take a critical thinking course then all this stuff will just flow into your brain..
Question I’ve been dealing with: once Robots start taking over people’s jobs in the processes, will there even be a need for IEs anymore? Would manufacturing plants require less IEs then, making there demand go down?

Hey, maybe a silly question but how do I know I'll be good at this job? It seems that you have to have the brain for problem solving .
