  • IME 411 - Simulation Modeling and Analysis


    Credits: 3

    This course is designed to introduce the fundamentals of simulation and systems modeling. During the course, the student will gain experience in formulating an appropriate simulation model for a system, implementing the model as a computer program, and evaluating the output of the model. Topics covered include Monte Carlo techniques, sampling from and identifying stochastic distributions, methods of estimating performance measures from simulation outputs, practical applications, and procedures for validating and verifying simulation models. Special purpose simulation languages such as Arena and SIMAN will be utilized. Systems models will also be constructed using Microsoft Excel software.

    Prerequisite(s): Junior standing in engineering and ENGR 305 .

  • IME 414 - Process and Facility Design


    Credits: 3

    This course develops an understanding of key strategic issues on facility design (e.g., product flow and waste elimination). Emphasis is on designing lean industrial facilities through the design of value-added manufacturing/assembly, material handling, and storage operations and the implementation of effective manufacturing support systems. Two other topics to be covered are plant layout and facility location. Special attention is given to the plant layout topic as it is critical to ensure continuous product flow. Case studies and practical examples are used to illustrate the application of the theoretical concepts taught in class.

    Prerequisite(s): ENGR 305 .

  • IME 419 - Transportation and Logistics


    Credits: 3

    This course provides an overview of key concepts in supply chain management directly related to transportation and logistics. Emphasis is on the strategic importance of creating value in those areas (i.e., transportation and logistics) through the systematic study of theoretical principles in transportation management, distribution, and warehousing. The adoption of best practices including the use of third-party logistics providers (3PL) is also covered. The role of information technology to enable improvements in transportation and warehousing is reviewed. Case studies and practical examples are extensively used to illustrate how to address operational issues in transportation, distribution, and warehousing to effectively increase supply chain responsiveness and performance and improve customer satisfaction.

  • IME 471 - Systems Engineering and Analysis


    Credits: 3

    This course is the first step in the senior design sequence. The first half of the course will concentrate on conceptual system design. For the rest of the semester, the lecture will cover the analysis, evaluation and operational feasibility of systems. To coincide with this material, additional time will be allotted for students to start the senior design project. The course will be assessed through a project proposal, midterm design review, final design review. Furthermore, the students will need to turn in individual progress reports and various assignments (homework, case studies) throughout the semester.
