Industrial engineers bridge the gap between design engineering and business by combining technical, business, and communication skills to design and improve products and processes. Industrial engineers develop mathematical models, identify and analyze data using statistical methods and AI, and develop and evaluate alternate strategies for determining the most productive ways to utilize people, materials, machines, money, space, and energy. UCF鈥檚 program provides job preparation through hands-on experiences with industry clients. Internships and jobs are plentiful with UCF鈥檚 proximity to Central Florida Research Park and Florida鈥檚 high-tech corridor. UCF also offers a Lean Six Sigma 鈥淕reen Belt鈥� certification, and an accelerated five-year bachelor鈥檚/master鈥檚 degree.

CECS Progress Policy

• Students in the Industrial Engineering major are expected to make consistent good progress toward their degrees to remain enrolled in, or eligible for, any major, minor, or certificate in the College of Engineering & Computer Science (CECS) or the College of Optics and Photonics (COP). To support this, CECS and COP enforce a Progress Policy with two components: the low grade component and the repeat attempt component.
  • Low Grade Component: Any student majoring in Industrial Engineering who has accumulated 7 or more unsuccessful attempts (i.e., grades below "C" (2.0), U grades, and withdrawals, including in 0-credit courses) over all courses taken at UCF will be placed on Lack of Progress Probation and remain on Lack of Progress Probation as long as the student is enrolled in a CECS or COP major. If a student on Lack of Progress Probation has a tenth unsuccessful attempt over all courses taken at UCF, the student will be Excluded from all CECS and COP majors, minors, and certificates.
  • Repeat Attempt Component: Any student majoring in Industrial Engineering who repeats any UCF course and does not earn a grade of "C" (2.0) or better on the second attempt will be placed on Lack of Progress Probation and remain on Lack of Progress Probation as long as the student is enrolled in a CECS or COP major. If a student on Lack of Progress Probation does not receive a grade of "C" (2.0) or better by the third attempt in the same UCF course, the student will be Excluded from all CECS and COP majors, minors, and certificates.
• A student who has been excluded from CECS and COP majors cannot declare any CECS or COP minors or certificates unless as required by the student鈥檚 degree program. A student who has been excluded from CECS and COP majors may seek readmission to a major in CECS or COP after earning a bachelor鈥檚 degree or relevant associate of science degree, either from another college at UCF or from another institution. To be eligible for readmission to CECS or COP, the student must not have accumulated any additional low grades in subsequent coursework used to complete the earned degree. An excluded student who meets these criteria is not guaranteed readmission to a CECS or COP major. Any student who is readmitted to the Industrial Engineering major will be subject to all probation conditions that applied at the time of exclusion.

This program prepares students for state-regulated professional licensure or certification. For more information on how this program may prepare you in that regard, please view the program.
