IE 350 - Junior Cooperative Learning Experience

1 Credit Hours
Exposure to the real-world practice of industrial engineering. Juniors will be placed on teams with sophomores and seniors and assigned a company or organization to study. The objectives are to develop technical writing skills, teaming skills, and mentoring skills; and to provide the opportunity to apply and integrate course content in the IE curriculum in a real-world context. 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 application of industrial engineering in a practical setting, 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. The Industrial Engineering 350 members of the team will be expected to take the lead in writing the final project report. 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.
