As global competition becomes stronger and the demands of all sectors of the market continue to grow in terms of technology as well as price and service, companies need engineers and managers who can operate effectively across the Management-Technology interface.
The Industrial Engineer must therefore be competent in all the technical, economic and human aspects of a complex process. In particular, he must be responsible for the design and optimization of a product or a complex system throughout its lifecycle.
The concepts of Industrial Engineering are essential for the design and development of production and logistic systems for both goods and services. Whatever their initial training or first professional experience, engineers or managers can gain the theoretical knowledge and practical know-how that will enable them to become true Industrial Engineers.
Logistics has to do with the management of product and information flows throughout the production system and supply chain. The planning and optimization of logistics and production systems has become a key factor of success for a company's productivity and performance of service in the increasingly competitive global economy.
