The industrial engineer (IE) providesleadership for American organizationsin reestablishing competitiveness in theglobal marketplace through system in-tegration and productivity improve-ment. No challenge to a young man orwoman can be greater than improvingproductivity, which is the application ofknowledge and skills to provide im-proved goods and services to enhancethe quality of life, both on and off thejob. This improvement must beachieved without waste of physical andhuman resources while maintaining theenvironmental balance. Industrial engi-neers are the “productivity people” whoprovide the necessary leadership andskills to integrate technology. Thisgives IEs a wide range of interests andresponsibilities.

As in other engineering fields, indus-trial engineering is concerned withsolving problems through the applica-tion of scientific and practical knowl-edge. What sets industrial engineeringapart from other engineering disciplinesis its broader scope. An IE relates tothe total picture of productivity. An IElooks at the “big picture” of whatmakes society perform best—the rightcombination of human resources, natu-ral resources, synthetic structures, andequipment. An IE bridges the gap be-tween management and operations,dealing with and motivating people aswell as determining what tools shouldbe used and how they should be used.

An IE deals with people as well asthings. In fact, industrial engineering is

often called the “people-oriented pro-fession.” It is a primary function of theIE to integrate people and technology-oriented systems. Therefore, IEs areactive in the fields of ergonomics andhuman factors.

To be competitive in this globaleconomy, it is essential to emphasizeand continually improve the quality ofgoods and services. Industrial engi-neering is the only engineering disci-pline offering course work in designingand implementing quality assurancesystems.

The IE’s skills are applicable to ev-ery kind of organization. IEs learn howto approach, think about, and solve pro-ductivity and integration problems re-gardless of their settings. IEs work inmanufacturing facilities, banks, hospi-tals, government, transportation, con-struction, and social services. Withinthis wide variety of organizations, IEsget involved in projects such as design-ing and implementing quality controlsystems, independent work groups, thework flow in a medical laboratory, real-time production control systems, com-puter-based management informationsystems, and manufacturing operatingsystems, to name a few. A unique fea-ture of most industrial engineering as-signments is that they involve interdis-ciplinary teams. For example, the IEmight be the leader of a team consistingof electrical and mechanical engineers,accountants, computer scientists, andplanners. This IE program gives thestudent the skills necessary to be aleader of these teams. These skills in-clude team building, brainstorming,group dynamics, and interpersonal rela-tionships.

IEs have a sound background intechnology integration, managementtheory and application, engineeringeconomics and cost analysis. They arewell equipped to deal with problemsnever seen before, making them primecandidates for promotion through themanagement career path, especially inhigh-tech organizations. In fact, morethan half of all practicing IEs are inmanagement positions. This area ofexpertise has placed the IE in the lead-ership role in the establishment of anew field of activity called “manage-ment of technology.”

Industrial engineers are well trainedin the development and use of analyti-cal tools, and their most distinctive skillis in the area of model building. IEsmust quickly learn and understand the

problems of their clients. In this con-text, good people skills and good ana-lytic skills are essential. This industrialengineering program offers both.

The Department of Mechanical andAerospace Engineering is the adminis-trative home for two undergraduate ma-jors: Aerospace Engineering and Me-chanical Engineering.

Both majors build on the broad expo-sure to the engineering, chemical, andphysical sciences and the mathematicsembodied in the general studies and en-gineering core courses required of allengineering students.

The Aerospace Engineering majorprovides students an education in tech-nological areas critical to the designand development of aerospace vehiclesand systems. Aerospace Engineeringgraduates are typically employed atgovernment laboratories (e.g., NASA)and in a wide range of aerospace andmechanical industries. The MechanicalEngineering major is perhaps one ofthe most broadly applicable programsin engineering, providing education fora wide variety of employment opportu-nities.

The two majors, discussed in moredetail below, can serve as entry pointsto immediate professional employmentor to graduate study. The emphasis inall fields is on the development of fun-damental knowledge that will havelong-lasting utility in our rapidly

changing technical society. Employ-ers’ desire for this emphasis is a strongpoint in favor of these choices of cur-ricula over technology or special pro-grams that emphasize current applica-tions or specific industries.

DEGREE REQUIREMENTS

All degree programs in the depart-ment require that students attain a mini-mum GPA of 2.00 in the engineeringcore and in the major in order to be eli-gible for graduation. Also, the depart-ment may require additional or reme-dial work for those students who havedemonstrated a trend of academic diffi-culty.

Engineering Core OptionsAmong the options listed on page

AEROSPACE ENGINEERING—B.S.E.

The primary concern of aerospaceengineers is the design and develop-ment of a wide variety of aircraft andspace vehicles and systems. The cur-rent challenges to the aerospace engi-neer include the design of a new gen-eration of high efficiency transport air-craft, the development of the nextgeneration of space transports, and thedesign of large space systems. In addi-tion to the design of vehicles, the aero-space engineer is involved in the fur-ther development of the many spin-offsof the aerospace industry. These in-clude contributions to power genera-tion, communications, air and waterpollution monitoring, management ofthe earth’s resources, and the under-standing of weather. Future contribu-tions are anticipated in the area of zero-gravity manufacturing of high-puritymaterials and medicines, and the designof solar power satellites.

The undergraduate curriculum in-cludes the study of flight mechanics,aerospace structures and materials,aerodynamics and propulsion. Thesesubjects provide the foundation neces-sary for design of aircraft and space ve-hicles.

MECHANICAL ENGINEERING—B.S.E.

Mechanical engineering is a creativediscipline that draws upon a number ofbasic sciences to design the devices,machines, processes, and systems thatinvolve mechanical work and its con-version from and into other forms. Itincludes: the conversion of thermal,chemical, and nuclear energy into me-chanical energy through various en-gines and power plants; the transport ofenergy via devices like heat exchang-ers, pipelines, gears, and linkages; theuse of energy to perform a variety oftasks for the benefit of society, such asin transportation vehicles of all types,manufacturing tools and equipment,and household appliances. Further-more, since all manufactured productsmust be constructed of solid materialsand because most products containparts that transmit forces, MechanicalEngineering is involved in the struc-tural integrity and materials selectionfor almost every product on the market.

Mechanical engineers are employedin virtually every kind of industry.They are involved with seeking newknowledge through research, with do-ing creative design and development,and with the construction, control,management, and sales of the devicesand systems needed by society. There-fore, a major strength of a mechanicalengineering education is the flexibilityit provides in future employment op-portunities for its graduates.

The undergraduate curriculum in-cludes the study of: the principles gov-erning the use of energy; the principlesof design, instruments and control de-vices; and the application of these stud-ies to the creative solution of practical,modern problems.

Director

The degree programs described inthe “Programs in Engineering Specialand Interdisciplinary Studies” table onpage 278 are administered by the Of-fice of the Dean of the College of Engi-neering and Applied Sciences.

Descriptions of these majors and op-tions, with their respective program re-quirements, can be found on the pagesindicated in the table.

PURPOSE

The majors of Engineering SpecialStudies and of Engineering Interdisci-plinary Studies accommodate studentswhose educational objectives requiremore intensity of concentration on aparticular subject or more curricularflexibility within an engineering disci-pline than the traditional departmentalmajors generally permit. These majorsare School of Engineering programs.Unlike the departmental major areas,however, there is not a separate faculty.The faculty teaching and advising inthese programs are from the School ofEngineering.

For many students, engineering stud-ies form the basis of preparation forprofessional engineering work whereproficiency in the application of sci-ence and the physical and social tech-nologies is brought to bear on problemsof a large scope. The necessary breadththat these students seek often is not ob-tainable in traditional engineeringfields. Rather, specially designed pro-grams of course work that merge therequired principles and approachesdrawn from all fields of engineeringand other pertinent disciplines are de-sired. As an answer to this need, twotypes of course arrangements are avail-able: (1) the Bachelor of Science in En-gineering (B.S.E.) degree with a majorin Engineering Special Studies and (2)the Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degreewith a major in Engineering Interdisci-plinary Studies.

The B.S.E. in Engineering SpecialStudies is designed primarily for stu-dents intending to pursue engineeringcareers at a professional level in indus-try or graduate studies. The B.S. in En-gineering Interdisciplinary Studies ac-commodates those students who desirethe integrity of an engineering educa-tion but who plan to enter professionsother than engineering or particularly toserve society in socially relevant activi-ties. Both are developed beyond thegeneral studies and the engineeringcore.

The curricula leading to both theB.S.E. and the B.S. degrees have beenaccredited by the Engineering Accredi-tation Commission of the AccreditationBoard for Engineering and Technology(ABET).

ENGINEERING SPECIALSTUDIES—B.S.E.

Engineering Mechanics. The curricu-lum of the engineering mechanics op-tion is intended for individuals inter-ested in pursuing a more basic andtheoretical education than is providedby typical curricula in aerospace, civil,or mechanical engineering. This cur-riculum is particularly suited for indi-viduals whose goals are an increaseddepth of understanding in the funda-mentals of mechanics and the pursuit ofan advanced engineering degree, withthe ultimate career goal of an academicor research position. Thus, it isstrongly recommended that a GPA of atleast 3.00 be maintained by all engi-neering mechanics students.

The engineering mechanics option isbased on increased course work inmathematics and the broad field of en-gineering mechanics, the latter ofwhich includes three interrelated areas:dynamics, fluid mechanics, and solid

mechanics. Each of these areas is re-lated to a variety of important and chal-lenging technological problems. Ex-amples include vibration control inspace vehicles at launch, optimal de-sign of composite structures, crystalgrowing in a microgravity environ-ment, fluid transition to turbulence onswept wings, and computer-aided mod-eling of structures ranging from surgi-cal implants to space satellites. Thefundamental emphasis of the engineer-ing mechanics program provides theflexibility and understanding that is re-quired to cope with rapidly occurringchanges in technology and the needs ofsociety.

This option is administered by theDepartment of Mechanical and Aero-space Engineering.

AERONAUTICAL MANAGEMENTTECHNOLOGY—B.S.

The Aeronautical ManagementTechnology curriculum is designed toprovide a thorough technical back-ground combined with an interdiscipli-nary general university education. Thegraduate is prepared to assume respon-sibilities in a wide area of managerialand technically related areas of avia-tion. The student gains a backgroundin aircraft structures, reciprocating andturbine engines, performance, design,management skills, business principles,systems analysis, and a variety ofcourse work specific to aircraft flight,airport operations, and air transporta-tion systems. The degree offers threeoptions: ab initio airline pilot flightmanagement, airway science manage-ment, and airway science aircraft sys-tems management. Airway sciencemanagement and airway science air-craft systems management curriculahave the approval of the Federal Avia-tion Administration as airway scienceprograms and can lead to employmentin that agency. The three options aredescribed separately below.

Ab Initio Airline Pilot FlightManagement Option

Flight training is certified by theFederal Aviation Administration.

Ab initio airline pilot flight manage-ment combines academic studies andflight training to prepare graduates forpositions within the air transportationindustry, primarily in the area of flightoperations. Theoretical preparation andflight training are specifically intendedto prepare the student for employmentin the scheduled airline industry.

This curriculum concentrates on fly-ing plus the technical, management,and computer-related applications nec-essary to operate in the high-density en-vironment of modern airspace. Theprogram emphasizes critical thinkingand cognitive, analytical, and commu-nication skills. The career option leadsto airline piloting and the development,administration, and enforcement ofsafety regulations including airworthi-ness and operational standards in civilaviation.

Ground schools and flight training inthe ab initio airline pilot flight manage-ment option are tightly integrated andhighly organized as a single, continu-ous training program. Each student be-gins actual flight training at the begin-ning of the flight training syllabus and

complete each lesson block in se-quence, throughout the training. Flightexperience and certificates received be-fore enrollment at ASU may or may notallow the individual student to progressmore easily through the training, but inany case, is not used to replace trainingrequirements in the ASU program.

While enrolled at ASU, students donot receive college credit for flight in-struction received at flight schoolsother than schools under contract withthe university for ab initio flight in-struction.

Flight instruction costs are not in-cluded in university tuition. The esti-mated cost of ab initio flight training is$55,000 in addition to normal univer-sity costs.

Ab initio airline pilot flight manage-ment students are required to completea minimum of 132 semester hours, in-cluding at least 50 semester hours ofupper-division courses. Students in theab initio airline pilot flight manage-ment option must also successfullycomplete qualification screening ex-aminations before beginning ab initioflight training. Qualification screeningincludes a first-class medical examina-tion, psychological evaluation, and apsychomotor skills tests. Students whodo not pass the qualification screeningexaminations but are otherwise quali-fied may continue in Aeronautical En-gineering Technology or in Aeronauti-cal Management Technology, in eitherthe airway science management optionor the airway science aircraft systemsmanagement option.

All degree requirements are shownon the student’s curriculum checksheet. These requirements include En-glish proficiency, general studies, thetechnology core, and specific additionalcourses listed in the following section.

Purpose. Electronics engineering tech-nology is a technological field of spe-cialization that requires the applicationof scientific and engineering knowl-edge and methods combined with tech-nical skills in support of electrical/elec-tronics engineering activities. It lies inthe occupational spectrum between thecraftsman and the engineer at the endof the spectrum closest to the engineer.The electronics engineering technolo-gist is a member of the electrical engi-

neering team that consists of electricalengineers, electronics engineering tech-nologists, and electronics engineeringtechnicians.

The electronics engineering tech-nologist is applications oriented, build-ing upon a background of appliedmathematics including the concepts andapplications of calculus. Utilizing ap-plied science and state-of-the-art tech-nology, the electronics technologist isable to produce practical, workable,and safe results quickly and economi-cally, to install and operate technicalsystems, to configure hardware forunique applications from proven con-cepts, to develop and produce products,to service machines and systems, tomanage construction and productionprocesses, and to provide customer sup-port to technical products and systems.

Degrees. The Department of Electron-ics and Computer Technology offersthe Bachelor of Science degree in Elec-tronics Engineering Technology (B.S./EET). Four options are available: com-puter systems, electronic systems, mi-croelectronics, and telecommunica-tions.

The computer systems option com-bines applied electronics and computerhardware-software concepts and appli-cations. It has been formulated to meetthe needs of persons who wish to en-gage in digital and computer systemsapplications as a career focus.

The electronic systems option isaimed at preparing persons for careersin instrumentation, control, and powersystems applications. This option al-lows a student to develop a broad-basedknowledge of electrical/electronic fun-damentals with an applications perspec-tive. Sixteen of the 26 specializationhours are specified and the remaining10 hours are approved technical elec-tives. The Department of Electronicsand Computer Technology has had aconcentration in electronic systems orinstrumentation and systems control formany years. The course patterns insupport of these emphasis areas havebeen well developed and continue toprovide strong support for the elec-tronic systems option under the B.S./EET program.

The microelectronics (UET) optioncombines applied electronics, mono-lithic and hybrid integrated circuit pro-

cessing and applications, device andcomponent fabrication, and manufac-turing. The objective of this option isto prepare persons to assume positionsin the area of microelectronics manu-facturing with immediately applicableknowledge as well as to develop astrong foundation of electronic funda-mentals and methods. Students shouldbe interested in the design, fabrication,and manufacture of imprinted circuitry,monolithic integrated circuits (bipolarand MOS), and hybrid thick film andthin film circuitry, components, andsystems. Graduates of this programhave various career opportunities in in-dustry, particularly in semiconductorprocessing, fabrication, manufacturing,and device product application areas.The continuing explosion in semicon-ductor and related technologies andtheir applications to electronic andcomputer-related products offersunique and challenging opportunities.Graduates of this program option se-cure positions in processing, manufac-turing, operations, and applications ar-eas in industry as members of the di-verse scientific engineering team.

The telecommunications option hasbeen structured to take advantage of therecent changes in the telecommunica-tions industry. The program encom-passes the fundamentals of informationand signal processing, modern band-width-efficient digital radio analysiswith RF and microwave circuits andsystems. Applications include tele-phone pulse code modulation, cableTV, fiber optic links, and satellite trans-mission circuits and systems.

A Master of Technology degree pro-gram with a concentration in electron-ics engineering technology is availablefor qualified B.S. graduates. The un-dergraduate program options are sup-ported as emphasis areas in themaster’s degree program. See theGraduate Catalog for more informa-tion.
