Accreditation

The Cal Poly Industrial Engineering and Manufacturing Engineering programs are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, http://www.abet.org.

The following are the Industrial Engineering Program Educational Objectives (PEOs):

Within 3-5 years of graduation, the alumni of the Industrial Engineering undergraduate program at Cal Poly will:

1. Make immediate contributions towards the design and implementation of innovative, effective solutions for improving processes and systems in society, business, and industry.
2. Have successful careers as engineering professionals with increasing responsibility and impact in their organizations.
3. Will communicate and function effectively in a collaborative and inclusive team, and will recognize the economic, societal, and ethical impacts of their decisions.
4. Effectively adapt to changes in technology and our global society over the course of their professional lives by continuously learning.

The following are the Student Outcomes for the Industrial Engineering Program:

SO 1: an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics

SO 2: an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.

SO 3: an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences

SO 4: an ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts

SO 5: an ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives

SO 6: an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions

SO 7: an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
