It is directed toward students who are interested in the interplay of basic physics with work on the frontiers of engineering development. The Industrial Engineering program allows students to become effective engineers and managers in a wide variety of industries, including manufacturing, utilities, and service industries such a health and transportation. The department has an international reputation for graduates who enter the industry with a practical background in petroleum production, reservoir engineering, drilling, advanced recovery methods, and gas technology. Petroleum engineering is the practical application of the basic and physical sciences of mathematics, geology, physics, and chemistry and all of the engineering sciences to the discovery, development, production, and transportation of petroleum. The curriculum for the options in construction, electrical-electronics and mechanical engineering technology is soundly developed and rigorously applied by dedicated faculty.
Engineering technologists work in the part of the spectrum between the engineer and the technician.
