What subjects do you take in industrial engineering?

Answer 1

Although very similar, each college or university has a curriculum layout particular to that school. Go to www.collegeboard.com/splash/ and use their College MatchMaker search engine. You can do a search by major, name of institution, and geographical location. You will be able to obtain a list of institutions that offer your program of interest. The site will give you some background about the school and a link to their web site where you can secure the requirements for Industrial Engineering. Have patience with this site. Once you get the hang of it, it will be a very helpful tool for you.

Answer 2

At U.C. Santa Barbara, you take 2 years of college level math (including calculus), 1 year of chemistry, and 1-2 years of physics. There is obviously more but you need to contact the program where you plan to study....

Answer 3

Physics,

Chemistry

and Mathematics and statistics

are the primary subjects required to study engineering...

Engineering, much like other science, is a broad discipline which is often broken down into several sub-disciplines. These disciplines concern themselves with differing areas of engineering work. Although initially an engineer will be trained in a specific discipline, throughout an engineer's career the engineer may become multi-disciplined, having worked in several of the outlined areas. Historically the main Branches of Engineering are categorized as follows:

• Aerospace engineering - The design of aircraft, spacecraft and related topics.

• Chemical engineering - The exploitation of chemical principles in order to carry out large scalechemical process, as well as designing new specialty materials and fuels.

• Civil engineering - The design and construction of public and private works, such as infrastructure(roads, railways, water supply and treatment etc.), bridges and buildings.

• Electrical engineering - a very broad area that may encompass the design and study of various electrical & electronic systems, such as electrical circuits, generators, motors,electromagnetic/electromechanical devices, electronic devices, electronic circuits, optical fibers,optoelectronic devices, computer systems, telecommunications.

• Mechanical engineering - The design of physical or mechanical systems, such as engines,powertrains, kinematic chains, vacuum technology, and vibration isolation equipment.
