The minimum requirements for admission into the Industrial Engineering graduate program are:
- Minimum
GPA 3.0 on a 4.0
- 3 letters
of recommendation
- Official
transcripts
- Statement

Some of the above requirements can be waived in select cases when other components of the application are particularly outstanding. Satisfaction of the above requirements does not guarantee admission. Students can be accepted with a BS or BA degree in engineering, physics, mathematics, psychology, and other science areas. At a minimum, students with non-engineering bachelors degrees are expected to have a good knowledge of calculus. Preliminary coursework may be required for students without an industrial engineering bachelors degree.
Graduate Application Procedure
Information regarding the procedure for applying for graduate studies can be obtained from the website of the Graduate Admissions Office.
Financial Aid
Most Industrial Engineering graduate students receive financial support through a combination of research and teaching assistantships and fellowships. Decisions about research and teaching assistantships are made by the individual faculty members. Questions about availability of financial support should be addressed to faculty in your primary area of study.
