Engineering Degrees
In engineering and manufacturing, quality control and quality engineering are involved in developing systems to ensure products or services are designed and produced to meet or exceed customer requirements and expectations. These systems are often developed in conjunction with other business and engineering disciplines using a cross-functional approach.
Systems engineering (or systems design engineering) as a field originated around the time of World War II. Large or highly complex engineering projects, such as the development of a new airliner or warship, are often decomposed into stages and managed throughout the entire life of the product or system. This process of managing the system's life cycle (through concept, design, production, operation and disposal) is a bit like executing a series of interconnected engineering projects in a sequence, each project drawing on the results of the last until the end result is achieved.
Industrial Engineers, Including Health and Safety Industrial engineers determine the most effective ways to use the basic factors of productionpeople, machines, materials, information, and energyto make a product or to provide a service. They are the bridge between management goals and operational performance. They are more concerned with increasing productivity through the management of people, methods of business organization, and technology than are engineers in other specialties, who generally work more with products or processes. Although most industrial engineers work in manufacturing industries, they may also work in consulting services, healthcare, and communications.
