IE 250 - Sophomore Cooperative Learning Experience

1 Credit Hours
Exposure to the real-world practice of industrial engineering. Sophomores will be placed on teams with juniors and seniors and assigned a company or organization to study. The objectives are to develop observation and listening skills, teaming skills, and mentoring skills; and to provide the opportunity to gain a better understanding of industrial engineering as a discipline by observing industrial engineering in action. Students will be required to maintain a journal documenting their individual experiences and reflections, including what the student has learned about effective team playing, the job of a practicing industrial engineer, and what the student was able to learn from or teach fellow team members. Each team will work on a project for the organization or company assigned, scoping and defining some problem of interest, and recommending a solution methodology. These project reports will go into a problem bank that will be used by Industrial Engineering 422 as a source of topics for senior design projects.
