Objectives of the Course Proposing an industrial engineering project for a real-world problem
Solving the project by the industrial engineering mindset and tool set
Analyzing the output of the project under realistic different scenarios (sensitivity
analysis)
Creating an (inter)disciplinary engineering and research environment
Course Content The course is a one-semester course offered in the Spring semester. Students are
expected to gain the ability to design a complex system, process, device or product
to solve a real-world problem. During this course, students are expected to complete
the projects developed within the scope of IE497 to solve a real-world problem as a
viable system. The development process of this system is expected to be designed in
line with the needs of the organization where the projects are carried out. It is the
responsibility of the students to deliver the designed project to the organization
where the project is carried out as an application that can be used in the focus of the
relevant real-world problem. Throughout the process, students are expected to
continuously follow and confirm the validation steps with the organizational
authorities.
