I. E. History from Turner, Mize and Case, “Introduction to Industrial and Systems Engineering”

IE Prospects

•^ Industrial engineers

are expected to have employment growth of 14percent over the projections decade,^ faster than the average

for all

occupations. As firms look for new ways to reduce costs and raiseproductivity, they increasingly will turn to industrial engineers to develop more efficient processes and reduce costs, delays, and waste.develop more efficient processes and reduce costs, delays, and waste. This focus should lead to job growth for these engineers, even in somemanufacturing industries with declining employment overall. Becausetheir work is similar to that done in management occupations, manyindustrial engineers leave the occupation to become managers.Numerous openings will be created by the need to replace industrialengineers who transfer to other occupations or leave the labor force.
