Master's in Industrial Engineering and Management

OSU's Master of Science in Industrial Engineering and Management (MSIEM) is most suitable for an engineering or science graduate seeking to specialize in supply chain management, logistics, optimization and analytics. This degree prepares students for doctoral studies or practice in modern service and manufacturing industries. Learn state-of-the-art tools and techniques from top notch professors.
ApplyProgram Information

Curriculum

The MSIEM may be earned by one of two plans:

Plan 1

  • Coursework with thesis
  • Minimum of 30 hours
  • Includes 24 hours of coursework and 6 hours of research

Plan II 

  • Coursework without thesis
  • Minimum of 33 hours

 Admissions

Admission to the Graduate College is required of all students pursuing the MS or PhD degree. Graduation from an industrial engineering bachelor’s program (4-year program) with scholastic performance distinctly above average, qualifies the student for admission to the School of Industrial Engineering and Management as a candidate for the master's program.  Graduates from related disciplines may be admitted if an evaluation of their transcripts and other supporting materials by the School of Industrial Engineering and Management indicates that they are prepared to take graduate-level course work in industrial engineering, or can be expected to do so after a reasonable amount of prerequisite work.
