Industrial and operations engineers analyze data to improve decision making and shape systems comprised of humans, machines, and processes. Since its inception in 1956, the Department of Industrial and Operations Engineering (IOE) at the University of Michigan (U-M) has advanced scientific and mathematical methods to help solve local and global challenges, expanding its research and teaching focus from the manufacturing industry into all sectors of the economy.
The Dude, part of the ENIAC, a giant solvable Rubik’s cube and a piece of the moon—these are just a few stops along this college tour of North Campus and University of Michigan Engineering.
Whether you’re new to the U or looking for a nostalgic trip down memory lane, a campus tour is the perfect way to check out some classic U-M locations and see what’s new. Join us, as we take an official tour on this episode of Summer At Michigan.
