  1. Must include 6 courses of at least 3 units each in the Humanities and Social Studies to meet the requirements of the College of Engineering, including two courses to complete the Reading and Composition requirement. Note: once the Humanities/Social Studies requirement has been met, the additional elective units may be taken in any discipline.

 

  1. The total of 11 units of Engineering Breadth must include at least 6 units taken from an approved list. The other units may consist of any other courses in the College of Engineering except 1-unit courses or seminars. (IEOR courses are permitted.)

 

  1. Students transferring into the program may postpone this course until the junior year. The upper division program has room for all required upper division electives, so that transfer students who have completed all lower division requirements plus the free electives upon entering as juniors can complete this program in the remaining two years.

 

  1. Students must take a minimum of 6 courses chosen from the categories listed below, including a minimum of 3 courses in Category A and a minimum of 1 course from Category B.

 

  1. Students must complete a course in computer programming. IEOR 140, CS9C, CS9F or CS9G or any equivalent coursework (with approved petition) is acceptable.

 

  1. No course other than IEOR 140 can be used to satisfy simultaneously two requirements. IEOR 140 can be used to satisfy simultaneously the requirements specified in (4) and (5) above.

 

  1. The 190 series courses can not be used to fulfill any engineering requirements (engineering units, courses, technical electives or otherwise). IEOR 172 cannot be used for engineering breadth either.

 

Category A

 

IEOR 130 ...... Methods of Manufacturing Improvement

IEOR 166 ...... Decision Analysis

IEOR 150 ...... Production Systems Analysis

IEOR 151 ...... Service Operations Design and Analysis (new course recently approved)

IEOR 153 ...... Facilities Planning and Design

 

Category B

 

IEOR 115 ...... Industrial & Commercial Data Systems

IEOR 140 ...... Industrial Production and Design (revised title)

IEOR 170 ...... Human Factors for Engineering Design

IEOR 171 ...... Introduction to Design of Human Work Systems & Organization

 

**IEOR 172 is a replacement course for Stat 134. Wherever the course catalog shows Stat 134 as a required prerequisite for an IEOR course, either IEOR 172 or Stat 134 may be taken. In semesters when both are offered, we recommend you take IEOR 172. Students may not receive credit for both Stat 134 and IEOR 172. Moreover, IEOR 172 cannot be used as an engineering or IEOR elective; it serves solely as a statistics course.
