Aim(s) of Course |
: |
This course provides students with details in industrial engineering in addition to their courses at undergraduate level through high level of engineering economy subjects and engineering economics. Information from the engineering economy at the undergraduate level is moved to the next level. A project selected by the student at the begining of the course is examined at each stage until the final phase and it is turned into an engineering economy project. |
|
