Program Overview

Industrial Engineering - BEng (Hons)

The Industrial Engineering degree program at Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU) is designed to help organizations make smarter and safer decisions. Students learn to use creativity and modeling to solve problems, starting with engineering fundamentals like calculus, physics, and engineering economics in their first year. As they progress, they study advanced topics such as management sciences, operations research, data science, and facilities design. In their fourth year, students address a real-world challenge through a team capstone design project and present their solution to industry experts.
