The bachelor's program in industrial engineering at the Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières aims to prepare students to meet the challenges of industrial engineering in their workplace, both in the manufacturing field and in services. : workplace layout, production management, quality management, health and safety, ergonomics, optimization of work methods, computer programming, implementation of new technologies, robotics, project management and team management. In addition, the program focuses on the acquisition of transversal skills, such as problem analysis, investigation, design of innovative solutions, teamwork, communication, professionalism, sustainable development and ethics. . By relying on a solid education in the applied sciences specific to their discipline, the graduate of the bachelor's degree in industrial engineering from UQTR becomes a leading player in the organization where they work, by designing new approaches to manufacture products, to complete tasks more efficiently, to improve employee satisfaction and to ensure greater profitability of operations. With their varied and cross-disciplinary skills, they are well positioned to collaborate with people with additional training in engineering (mechanical, electrical, IT, etc.), administration, finance, human resources, etc. In addition, he/she has the skills necessary to function well in both large companies and SMEs, Here are examples of mandates entrusted to the industrial engineer: Design the layout of a workstation, a department or a factory; Improve the ergonomics of a workstation; Develop the production time study to optimize the work; Design the operations planning system; Develop new production methods; Choose and implement new robotic technologies and new software; Design the work accident prevention plan; Develop a simulation model to optimize a work process; Design mathematical models to optimize the delivery of goods; Program software and applications to facilitate the work of employees; Improve work processes according to the Lean approach ; Manage projects; Manage teams. The bachelor's degree in industrial engineering offers the possibility of carrying out an accelerated passage to the master's degree in engineering (industrial engineering concentration) in the last year of study, making it possible to obtain both degrees in approximately five years. The UQTR program is accredited by Engineer Canada and allows its graduates to take the steps directly to become a candidate for the engineering profession (CPI), leading to the title of engineer (ing.). Program Objectives The bachelor's program in industrial engineering aims for the student to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary for the analysis and design of production systems, their components and their interactions. It prepares the future industrial engineer to intervene in one or the other component of the production function, in manufacturing or service companies. This intervention mainly consists in favoring the optimization of the human-machine-material-capital components in the production system in order to improve its productivity. The program also aims for the student to master the quantitative techniques of optimization of production systems based on the sciences and techniques specific to industrial engineering using computer tools. In addition, it makes the future graduate able to participate actively in an organization that is entering the era of information technologies and artificial intelligence. Show less
