Overview

The College of Engineering of the University of South Florida offers undergraduate and graduate programs to prepare students for a broad spectrum of professional careers in engineering. The undergraduate programs are designed to provide students with a sense of human values and the scientific/technical foundation necessary for a lifetime of continued learning.

The programs offered by the College of Engineering are designed to meet the diverse requirements of the future and cover the areas of professional engineering and applied science. The engineering programs at the college have been developed with an emphasis on three broad aspects of engineering activity: design, research and the operation of complex, technological systems.

The USF Lakeland campus offers junior-level courses common to all engineering degree programs and all senior-level courses leading to the Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering.


Degree Program

The Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering (B.S.I.E.) degree can be completed at USF Lakeland. There are 68 semester hours of upper level courses in the curriculum. Classes are held in Lakeland, complemented by courses delivered through distance education from the Tampa campus. Some courses or academic experiences may require attending the Tampa campus. The B.S.I.E. program prepares its graduates for design, evaluation and operation of a range of industrial systems from the analysis of business productivity to the detailed operation of manufacturing plants. Graduates can expect widespread job opportunities competitive with other engineering disciplines. Topics in the program include:
  • Manufacturing and Quality Assurance
  • Robotics and Automation
  • Production Planning and Control
  • Simulation
  • Production and Plant Design
  • Human Factors and Productivity
  • Operations Research
  • Applied Statistics


Admissions Criteria

Students planning to transfer to USF's Engineering program from a state of Florida public community college should follow a pre-engineering program leading to an Associate of Arts (A.A.) degree. The community college program should include the prerequisites to upper level university coursework listed in the Course Track.
