Starting Fall 2023, our new bachelor of science in industrial engineering provides a modern program to address the current and future needs of industries, especially in Maine.

The degree program focuses on foundational and practical skills suitable for direct entry-level professional workforce placement in a diversity of industrial fields, or to enter into graduate studies.  Graduates will be capable of using modern software and analytical tools to solve complex problems in healthcare, manufacturing, business logistics and tourism. Students will further gain an appreciation for historical perspectives in industrial engineering and understand the vital role industrial engineers play in the nation’s infrastructure.
