Operations Engineering Block Option

Operations engineering is the discipline that designs, directs, and coordinates the processes for making things from beginning to end such as automobile assembly lines. To make better products at less cost, the discipline integrates all aspects of operations from scheduling production, to handling materials, to designing robotic automation systems.

The ERB faculty advisor recommends that ERB majors with an operations block option take the following set of courses. Students may also create their own course sets based on those listed on the degree plan; however, this course set have been designed to have the fewest number of prerequisites and the best grouping of applicable coursework.
