Máster Profesional en Ingeniería Industrial

Your ability to succeed can be enhanced through advanced education. Regardless of the industry — service, research, manufacturing, government, financial, health care, retail, non-profit — employees with a knowledge of industrial engineering play a major role in defining an organization’s future.

The area of study that provides individuals with the skills, techniques and tools to succeed in a wide range of organizational settings is industrial engineering. Industrial engineering involves the design, installation, resource allocation and improvement of integrated systems. These systems may be composed of one, some, or all of the following: people, information, equipment, energy, materials, software and processes.

If solving problems, interacting on multidisciplinary teams, and working in one of the many facets of industrial engineering are of interest to you, then consider the Professional Master’s Degree in Industrial Engineering. What you can expect from your industrial engineering degree is the following:

• A foundation in industrial engineering tools and methodologies
• A working knowledge of business fundamentals
• An understanding of how systems are designed, improved and installed
• The ability to work in teams with other engineers and business people
• The ability to write and speak clearly and convincingly
• The ability to think from a systems perspective
• The ability to analyze and solve problems
