Incoming students of the Industrial Engineering program must have a solid foundation in subjects related to mathematics, science and technology; a basic command of English; effective communication skills; a strong interest in innovation, technology, industry, industrial automation; and an ability to explain the relationship between their personal development and the national and international, social and economic context; and act according to their requirements, through teamwork, solidarity, mutual respect, social responsibility and environmental protection.

As a graduate student of the Industrial Engineering program, you will be able to:

• Efficiently manage areas of operation.
• Conduct research based on continuous improvement.
• Develop new approaches in new industries and systems.
• Specialize in the development of new projects that involve process automation.
