Industrial engineering
The William Davidson Faculty of Industrial Engineering &amp; Management (IE&amp;M) is the oldest such department in Israel. IE&amp;M was launched as a Technion academic Department in 1958. The Department grew under the leadership of "Pinchas Naor", who served as its founding Dean. Naor's vision was to combine Industrial engineering with Management by creating a large, inherently multidisciplinary unit covering a wide spectrum of activities such as applied engineering, mathematical modeling, economics, behavioral sciences, operations research, and statistics.
