Industrial Engineering

A Bachelor’s degree is an undergraduate university degree, which corresponds to the 1st cycle of study.

After completion of the four-year high school education or equivalent, bachelor studies run for four years, and correspond to 240 ECTS credits. The 1st cycle of study leads to the academic title of Bachelor of Science (BSc).

IUS Industrial Engineering program is designed to provide students with a solid basis in mathematics and science, as well as in engineering economics, manufacturing systems, production and inventory control, operations research, quality engineering, reliability, facilities planning, materials handling and information technology. We encourage our students to participate in industrial internships to acquire practical experience to complement their industrial engineering education.

Industrial engineering is a discipline dedicated to the design, installation, improvement and control of integrated systems of people, materials and facilities in a wide range of organizations that produce goods or services. Thus, it is a field of study intended for individuals who are interested in analyzing and formulating abstract models of complex systems with the intention of improving system performance. 

A PhD is a doctoral research degree and the highest level of academic qualification you can achieve. The degree normally takes between three and four years of full-time work towards a thesis offering an original contribution to your subject of interest.

The 3rd cycle of study is organized and run as a three-year study program and it corresponds to 180 ECTS credits, where candidates acquire ECTS credits by passing exams in courses specified by the curriculum, conducting research in the specific area of the doctoral dissertation, and completing and successfully defending a doctoral dissertation.
