Industrial Engineering deals with finding the best among alternative solutions (optimization) for a complex problem with constraints and limited resources. It is concerned with the development, improvement, implementation and evaluation of integrated systems of people, money, knowledge, information, equipment, energy, materials, analysis and synthesis, as well as the mathematical, physical and social sciences together with the principles and methods of engineering design to specify, predict, and evaluate the results to be obtained from such systems or processes.

Education and training are carried out in the form of formal education. In addition, students do internships in laboratories, research centers, workshops, or workplaces within the scope of applied education.

Key Learning Outcomes;

Graduates of the programs will be able to;

1. implement the theoretical and practical informations and skills of mathematics and science in IE problem solving.
2. identify, define, model and solve the complex Industrial Engineering problems; prepare design and production reports; give and receive clear and reasonable directives.
3. consider the system as a whole, even when solving component or subsystem level problems.
4. design complex processes, products and systems under realistic constraints by allocating resources efficiently; use modern design procedures in this respect.
5. select, implement and develop modern hardware and software tools in order to solve and analyze IE problems and consequently interpret the results obtained.
6. use at least one programming language and contemporary information technologies efficiently.
7. work both individually and collaboratively in multi-disciplinary teams.

Supplementary Learning Outcomes;

Graduates of the programs will be able to;

1. access up to date information in the field of IE by the way of efficiently usage of databases and other sources.
2. recognize his/her learning needs and personal abilities to be able engage in life-long learning, refresh himself/herself by monitoring recent developments in science and technology.
3. design experiments, conduct experiments, collect data, analyse the results and present findings efficiently with oral presentations and written reports in Turkish and at least one foreign language.
4. demonstrate knowledge in professional practices such as project, quality, risk and change management, and sustainable development; and demonstrate awareness in entrepreneurship and innovation.
5. develop an understanding of social, scientific, cultural and ethical responsibility within the context of Industrial Engineering and their effects on health, environment and safety/security.

The assessment and evaluation methods applied for each course are defined according to Article 18 of Istanbul Bilgi University Credit System Undergraduate and Graduate Degree Education and Examination Regulations (https://www.mevzuat.gov.tr/anasayfa/MevzuatFihristDetayIframe?MevzuatTur=8&MevzuatNo=7701&MevzuatTertip=5). Except for courses that do not require exams such as projects, graduation projects, laboratory courses, etc., all courses have a final exam and at least one midterm exam. There may also be quizzes and homework may be assigned to students.  Final exams are held during the exam period specified in the academic calendar. The dates and venues of the final exams are determined by the Rectorate, and the information about the classrooms and invigilators is first shared with the academic staff by the Planning Unit. Then it is announced to the students.

1. YÖK audits

The Council of Higher Education (YÖK) is responsible for the planning, organization, management and supervision of education, training and other activities carried out in monitoring the quality of higher education programs. For this reason, "University Monitoring and Evaluation Reports" of higher education institutions are published every year within the framework of the criteria determined by YÖK. Based on these reports, reports containing qualitative and quantitative evaluations of higher education institutions are shared with the public by YÖK. In addition, the Council of Higher Education publishes the "Foundation Higher Education Institutions Report" on foundation higher education institutions every year. In this report, academic, administrative and financial data on foundation higher education institutions are shared.

Quality assurance of undergraduate programs in higher education is ensured according to the "Procedures and Principles for Ensuring Quality Assurance of Higher Education Diploma Programs". Accordingly, the following steps are followed.

1. The process of creating and approving undergraduate departments and programs:

• Determining the minimum standards and criteria for the opening of undergraduate departments and programs in higher education institutions,
• The curriculum of undergraduate departments and programs in higher education institutions and the learning outcomes of the program are determined by the senates of higher education institutions in accordance with the basic principles and principles determined by YÖK.

2. Assessment and Evaluation: Determining how the learning outcomes will be measured and evaluated, based on the basic principles set by the Council of Higher Education and the education, training and examination regulations prepared by higher education institutions.
3. Certification: Students enrolled in undergraduate programs are entitled to receive an undergraduate diploma if they successfully complete the course credits and obligations such as internship / graduation project and grade point average determined by higher education institutions.

4. Self-Assessment-External Evaluation:

• Higher education institutions are required to submit their "Institutional Internal Evaluation Reports (IER)" for the previous year every year. To enter the Information System prepared by the Higher Education Quality Board (YÖKAK).
• YÖKAK shares the "Institutional Feedback Report" on the external evaluation of higher education institutions with the public.

2. Association for Evaluation and Accreditation of Engineering Programs (MÜDEK) accreditation

Istanbul Bilgi University Industrial Engineering Undergraduate Program has MÜDEK accreditation valid from 01 May 2017 until 30 September 2027.

3. Corporate Quality Activities

The University was the first higher education institution in Turkey to be accredited by WSCUC (Western Association of Schools and Colleges Senior College and University Commission) and has developed specific processes for program learning outcomes assessment and program review.

5. For international students, to have applied and been placed directly to the University; to have been evaluated by the University in accordance with the publicly available national and institutional regulations as stated on the University's website

Industrial engineers are responsible for various system design, installation, development and supervision tasks. While fulfilling these responsibilities, they focus on the effective and efficient utilization of people, information, equipment and financial resources with responsibilities in designing, developing, implementing and managing the control of complex systems. Since these resources and tasks are essential components in any industry, employment opportunities for industrial engineers cover a wide range of areas. Industrial Engineering graduates can work in designing, developing and monitoring efficient and effective complex systems and processes in industrial, service and government organizations. Construction, health systems, tourism, energy, transportation, logistics, maritime, education, economic planning, banking, insurance, telecommunication, environmental systems, information and communication technologies, defense, retail, marketing and sales, consulting and local administration are among the sectors in which industrial engineers are frequently employed.
