CAREER IN INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING

INTRODUCTION:-
Ever wondered how costs in industries are reduced? How productivity is enhanced? How any process is optimized? Guess what…! Industrial Engineers makes this optimization possible.

WHAT IS INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING?
Coming to the definition, the name itself says, it is a branch of engineering sciences which deals with operations of a company and is concerned with costs, people, efficiencies, profits, time, information etc. It is basically based on the concept of Management Sciences.

HOW IT VARIES FROM MECHANICAL ENGINEERING?
Mechanical Engineering is concerned more with manufacturing processes such as Fabrication, Welding, Casting, Metal forming etc. While Industrial Engineering deals with optimization of processes i.e. increasing the productivity, reducing total costs incurred etc. There is more of technical aspects associated with Mechanical while business & management concepts are involved in Industrial Engineering. One who opts for Industrial gets an opportunity to study about subjects like Ergonomics (Work-Time study), Operations Research & Supply chain management.


FAMOUS PERSONALITIES:

● Taiichi Ohno (Father of Toyota)
● Samuel Ginn
● Shimon Y. Nof
● James White
● Ravindra K. Ahuja
● Timothy D. Cook

HOW TO BECOME ONE?

ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA:

● For undergraduate courses, students should clear 10+2 or equivalent degree to appear for Joint Entrance examination (JEE), which serves as an entry pass to IITs, NITs & GFTIs. There are private entrance exams as well which offer B.Tech/B.E courses in the fields of Production & Industrial, Industrial Design etc. which lasts for four years. There are numerous postgraduate courses in Industrial Engineering which offer the degree of Master's in Technology/Engineering/Management Sciences. Students need to have B.Tech/B.E/B.S degree to be eligible for those. The period of the course is 2 years.
● It's better if one have internship experience during undergraduation as it strengthens the resume which will be useful for Master's.

TOP UNIVERSITIES OFFERING DEGREE IN INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING:

For Undergraduation:-
● Indian Institute of Technology, Mumbai
● Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee
● Birla Institute of Technology & Sciences, Pilani
● National Institute of Technology, Jamshedpur
● National Institute of Technology, Rourkela
● Manipal Institute of Technology, Manipal
● Amrita School of Engineering, Amritapuri
● BMS College of Engineering, Bengaluru.

For Master's in Industrial Engineering:-
● Texas State University
● New Jersey Institute of Technology
● University of California, Berkeley
● University of Michigan
● Georgia Institute of Technology
● University of Munich
(I guess there are still better and Easy-to-get-in Universities apart from this).


Courses/Training/Internships:-


It's really good if one does training or any internship in manufacturing or service sector while pursuing academics. Have you ever heard of any Computer Science student doing training? No. Right? Trainings are for Mechanical & Industrial like courses for computer science. Paid internships are usually tough to get but there are a lot of companies that offer unpaid internships. You can easily get one if you have references & contacts. Internships help you gain industrial exposure, understand working style & life style, knowing how classroom knowledge is applied in the industry etc. I suggest to do a training of 1 or 2 months at bigger organizations like:-

● Tata motors
● Tata steel
● Cummins India
● NTPC
● VTPS
● DRDO
LIFESTYLE:
One can advocate the challenging nature of this field by descrying the people involved in this very field around us. Satisfactory levels are high compared to few other engineering professions. Since many manufacturing industries in India are government affiliated with good experience you will be getting good contacts. Since the resources involved in the most of manufacturing industries are both “limited and constrained”, the growth in these industries will either increase steadily or it declines. Average working hours for industrial engineers is around 40-50 hours per week. Many get up early in the morning. While some stay up to midnight. The time is to taken as stranger during an emergency.
CAREER & JOB ROLES:

1) Through GATE opportunities in PSU’s.
2)  After B.Tech go for M.Tech and for research pursue Ph.d
3) You can go for MBA in industrial management.
NITIE offers the following courses

Post Graduate Diploma in Industrial Safety and Environmental Management (PGDISEM)
Post Graduate Diploma in Industrial Engineering (PGDIE)
Post Graduate Diploma in Project Management (PGDPM)
Post Graduate Diploma in Manufacturing Management (PGDMM)

4) You can go for general MBA by writing various entrance exams like
CAT, IIFT,SNAP, XAT etc.
