Combined BS Industrial Engineering and Certificate in Engineering Management

Do you consider every perspective when approaching a challenge? Simulation teaches students to apply statistics and modeling to develop custom solutions to unique use cases.

As part of their coursework, three Quinnipiac students used simulation to improve the flow of traffic and maximize the use of space during big events. The students attended the 2018 Spring Simulation multiconference in Baltimore, Maryland, where they presented their research and were featured in a peer-reviewed article.

Do you believe that time is money? When it comes to supply chain and operations, two Quinnipiac students have calculated just how much businesses can shave off of their transportation costs by following the most efficient transportation route. Using an algorithm, these students collected data that focused on the shortest path of transportation and its associated costs and have since been published in a peer-reviewed journal.

Have you explored the power of machine learning? By leveraging machine learning and deep learning to identify trends across data sets, undergraduate students in the industrial engineering program have the opportunity to improve vital systems across industries including healthcare.

Recently, two medical doctors worked with Quinnipiac to analyze patient data from 544 individuals. Through machine learning, the group was able to calculate and identify how additional medical tests can determine the likelihood of bladder cancer at a higher rate of accuracy. 

Undergraduate students are encouraged to explore research opportunities during their time at Quinnipiac to gain crucial experience while improving outcomes for our community on a local, national and global scale.

Are you interested in educating engineering students one day? See how professors develop and enhance curriculum and learning outcomes during up-close research experiences.

Join our faculty as we work to improve how students interact with STEM programs throughout their educational journey. In past years, industrial engineering students at Quinnipiac have worked to identify participants, analyze data sets and present their findings in peer-reviewed articles.

Are you ready to propel businesses forward? Students are welcome to join extensive research on game theory, and specifically, applying game theory to supply chain management. Students will consider the interests, decisions and interactions between parties in a business setting, taking a strategic approach to determining the amount of supply for players to gain the maximum possible income under certain conditions of sales.

Do you like to take the shortest path from point A to point B? That attitude is perfect for working to solve the facility allocation problem. When considering locations for vital facilities, companies must consider transportation costs and challenges, how the transportation environment will affect sales, and how sales will affect the bottom line. Conduct research and gain valuable insight to bolster your classroom experiences. 

Do you see the world in numbers and problem sets? Would you be interested in formulating the mathematical basis of real-life scenarios to solve these problems?

At Quinnipiac University, you can. Our faculty have researched the theory and practice of optimization, applying complex mathematics to real-world scenarios across industries. From improving patient scheduling experiences to refining operations efforts, students can gather valuable research experience alongside our esteemed faculty.
