Introduction..Industrial engineering is one of the famous fields of
engineering. Many high school graduates wish to enter this
major in college. But apparently many of them do not know
what exactly industrial engineering is. In fact many of them areinterested in this field simply because they think this field is
cool. Even for first-year industrial engineering students many
of them still do not know the meaning of this major.

1. Industrial engineering is a derivative
of the mechanical engineeringIndustrial engineering has a long history. But you should know
that actually industrial engineering is a derivative of
mechanical engineering. !he father of industrial engineering
who pioneered this science in modern history was a mechanicalengineer. !he first industrial engineering program in the world
is fraction of mechanical engineering as well. !herefore it is
not strange that many current industrial engineering courses are
in the same department with mechanical engineering.

2. Industrial engineering is not basicengineering, but an interdisciplinary
engineeringIndustrial engineering is usually located in the same faculty with
mechanical engineering chemical engineering etc. But you should know
that different from the mechanical engineering chemical engineering
civil engineering and electrical engineering that is basic engineering
industrial engineering is an interdisciplinary engineering. !his means
industrial engineering involve many sciences or disciplines. !hese
sciences include mathematics and physics "as other engineering#
physiology and even social sciences such as psychology. $nother example
of interdisciplinary engineering fields are biological engineering nuclear
engineering petroleum engineering agricultural engineering and so on.

3. Industrial engineering involves manyprinciples of management, but only the
scientic managementIndustrial engineering is widely known as a blend between
engineering and management. Industrial engineering indeed
involves many principles of management. But you should
know that management in industrial engineering is only
scientific management. In addition to management
industrial engineering is also studying other social sciences
such as psychology. %owever the same as management
psychology that is used is only a psychological approachthat accepts scientific method. !his is cognitive psychology.
&o in conclusion although this science involves social
sciences industrial engineering is still scientific at all.

4. Industrial engineering is not only for man
Industrial engineering often use manufacturing industry asa model. 'ne reason is because industrial engineering is
much oriented to the !oyota. But you should know that
industrial engineering is not only for manufacturing
industry. !his knowledge can be applied across all typesof industries ranging from mining industry oil ( gas
industry transportation industry service industry and so
on. $ctually industrial engineering can also be applied in
any system whether it is industrial or not. !herefore thisfield is also often referred to as systemic engineering.
Manufacturing system is most often used as a model
system because this system is the most concrete visible
and palpable.

5. Industrial engineer is one of
engineers with the highest salary$re you curious about the educational background that
has a bright prospect) *ou should know that industrial
engineering is one of them. $ccording to surveys in some
countries industrial engineering graduate is one who has
the highest salary.

. Industrial engineering is a eld of engineering
with most e!tensive "ob opportunitiesMany people are curious about what kind of work suitable
for the industrial engineer. *ou should know that
industrial engineering is a field of engineering with most
extensive job opportunities. Many industrial engineering
graduates become professional in industry consultant
researcher lecturer and even entrepreneur considering
industrial engineer is known for the best sense of business
among engineers. Industrial engineers can work in all
types of industries such as manufacturing mining oil (
gas construction and even services.

. Industrial engineering is a eld of engineering
with most e!tensive "ob opportunitiesIn contrast to other engineers in industry industrial
engineers can be found in many divisions ranging from
divisions that are directly related to the production such as
division of production engineering +uality control and
warehousing to divisions that only support the production
such as &%E "safety# maintenance &,M cost planner
( and purchasing and even divisions that are not
typically touched by engineer such as % marketing etc.
