Abstract
A study was made to identify existing two and fouryear Industrial Engineering Technology programs in the United States.A preliminary tabulation was made of this data and a model foridentification developed for discussion.
INTRODUCTION
This paper was generated to form a basiS fort di'scussion at
this year's rap session. The session was requested at the
planning meeting last year to extend those disciplines previously
covered to include the field of Industrial Engineering Technology.
After it was learned that this rap session would be scheduled,
a study was initiated to locate those schools in the United States
having an interest in Industrial Engineering Technology. The
preliminary results of this study are included in this paper.
Cauti-01 should be exercised in use of such data, since insuffi-
cient time was available to verify reSylts.
PROBLEM OF IDENTIFICATION
It became evident in attempting to identify schools interested
in Industrial Engineering Technology that a wide variety of programs
existed. It was decided.to identify only those programs within
Engineering Technology curritula, rather than cover the broad.
spectrum including Industrial Engineering ScienCe and IndustriaL
Technology. Figures 1 and 2 illustrate a possible mode of
identification.
A combinaticin of theory and skill can be used defining
the nature'of theSe programs and the level within each program
area. Figure 2 specifically indicates various defined areas
within the general engineering personnel spectrum.
Each disciplinary area has defined different regions on this
map and a separate plane exists for each disciplinary area.
Figure 3 illustrates a set of planes, each identified to a-
I
nominal measurement.
Figure 4 illustrates a possible Industrial Engineering plane
and is unique in the set of engineering spectrum planes. The
areas of Industrial Technology, Engineering,Technology, and
Engineering Science most likely overlap and clear boundries do
not exist. 'Engineering Technology generally occupies the central
area of such a plane. Industrial Engineering Technology, then,
is represented by the shaded area in Figure 4. Hopefully,
further discussion may clarify more fully the identification of
the area of Industrial Engineering Technology.
Within the definable area of Industrial Engineering Technology,
both AAS and BS programs exist. Part-of the study was to determine
those schools providing these two programs.
'SURVEY
In January, a survey form was sent to 205 schools identified
as possibly having an Industrial Engineering-TeOnology. curriculum.
The survey questionnaire was developed to determine the person
responsible for that program at each institution.' Ninety-one
institutions returned ,the questionnaire with 63 replies indicating
the existence of such .a program at_their institution and 28 replies
indicating no such program.
Since ECPD has provided a well defined description of the
Engineering Technology area and has developed guidelines for
accreditation of such program,. the question of ECPD accreditation
was included. Out of the 63 schools responding, 21 indicated
they had ECPD accreditation either of candidacy or of full
accreditation. It seems certain tfitit some schools were not fully
aware of the ECPD accrediting activity, since this number exceeds
that listed by ECP.D in the area of Industrial Engineering Technology.
The questionnaire requested whether the AAS and/or BS degree
. was offered. Thirty schools indicated they offered the AAS degree
program and 16 indicated they offered the BS program.
Table II provides a sumMary of those schools responding that
either had a AAS or BS program, or both. The number of hours (HRS)
is the number of semester hours listed by thaschool. In the
case of schools halving both the AAS and the BS program, the number
indicates the hours required'in the BS program. Replies from thoseNO-
schools indicating total number of quarter hours in a program.were
adjusted to indicate the equivalent number of semester hours. The
remaining columns of Table I indiCate requirement of:
(a) Algebra and/or Trigonometry (AG-TG)
(b) Calculus (CAL)
(c) Statistics (STAT)
(d) Finite'Math (FNM)
A wide variation of response occurred t
-3-
these questions.
The ldSt part of the questionnaire requested information
concerning the technical courses offered. The specific courses
listed.apparently followed closely actual curricula practice,
sincte they received a heavyipositive response (See Table II).4
Remaining courses, as write-ins, received a variety of responSe
with Industrial Safety providing the most frequent response as
a write-/in course
The data provided in this report is preliminary and:was
i generated for discussion purposes only. It is hoped that the
extent and quality of information .available on Industrial
Engineering Technology programs will expand in the future. Any
0suggestions-you may have will be appreciated.
SUMMARY
The purpose-of thiS paper:was to provide material's for.
discussion and future development, An initial sUrvey has been
made andi schools having Industrial-Engineering Technology program
identified. Caution should be exercised.fn the use of this data,,,,
since ng feedback has been gained regarding accuracy of the
materials collected. It is hoped that in the future, the project
can be expanded and additional information collected regarding
the Industrial) Engineering Technology program, The motivation
for such effort is to provide information to those schools
offering curricula in this rapidly growing field of Industrial
Engineering Technology.

Dear Colleague:
We are attempting to determine those schools inthe. United States that have a program in IndustrialEngineerill Technology. If you have such a programeither at the Associate or Bachelor level, please. °
complete the attached survey questionnaire andreturn in the self-addressed stamped envelope.
The....Rvrpose of this survey is to determine thebasic structure of existing Industrial EngineeringTechnology programs and to develop a listing.ofschools having such a program. We will compile-these and return a copy of the full list to all
schools reporting to the survey questionnaire.If interest warrants, we.will try to arrange a .
gathering of program representatives at the forth-coming American Society.of Engineering Educationconference in Fort Collins, Colorado, in June 1975.
Sincerely,
tiZZet 7-7)
