Strategic Plan For Industrial And Management Systems Engineering, Paul Savory
Strategic Plan For Industrial And Management Systems Engineering, Paul Savory
Industrial and Management Systems Engineering: Reports
The role of this strategic plan is to map out a range of department goals, offer objectives for achieving each goal, and list potential strategies for meeting an objective. It also lists performance metrics for measuring progress for each goal. Each year, a subset of goals and objectives will be identified by the IMSE department as a priority for the coming year. Detailed metrics for measuring improvement for the department’s priorities areas will then be defined. The department committee to develop the plan consisted of Dr. Paul Savory (committee chair), Dr. Susan Hallbeck, and Dr. Erick Jones.

Introduction To Industrial Engineering: Theme Park Design And Layout, Paul Savory
Introduction To Industrial Engineering: Theme Park Design And Layout, Paul Savory
Industrial and Management Systems Engineering: Instructional Materials
Classroom exercise for IMSE 150 at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. This goal is to introduce freshman industrial engineering students to various aspects of industrial engineering and being an engineer. Plant layout and design is one of the key areas of industrial engineering. There are numerous issues that must be accounted for. A subset include: machine utilization, queueing space, and flow of materials. To provide students with an introduction to plant layout and design, let's consider designing a theme park. As we will see, many of the concepts will be the same.

This fun and interactive penny manufacturing game highlights the impact of variability, capacity, and overtime.
Introduction To Industrial Engineering: Bad Human Factor Designs, Paul Savory
Introduction To Industrial Engineering: Bad Human Factor Designs, Paul Savory
Industrial and Management Systems Engineering: Instructional Materials
Classroom exercise for IMSE 150 at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. This goal is to introduce freshman industrial engineering students to various aspects of industrial engineering and being an engineer. Ergonomics or human factors does not only encompass product design, but safety, and product use. A simple definition is “to make the work place safe and less stressful on the worker.” Human factors or ergonomics impacts all aspects of our lives. Let's consider each of the following examples of bad human factor designs.
