Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Firsthand Look at the Role of the Industrial Engineer The industrial engineer helps decide how best to utilize an organization’s resources to achieve company goals and objectives. Introduction to Industrial Engineering, Second Edition offers an in-depth analysis of the industrial engineering profession. While also providing a historical perspective chronicling the development of the profession, this book describes the standard duties performed, the tools and terminologies used, and the required methods and processes needed to complete the tasks at hand. It also defines the industrial engineer’s main areas of operation, introduces the topic of information systems, and discusses their importance in the work of the industrial engineer. The authors explain the information system concept, and the need for integrated processes, supported by modern information systems. They also discuss classical organizational structures (functional organization, project organization, and matrix organization), along with the advantages and disadvantages of their use. The book includes the technological aspects (data collection technologies, databases, and decision-support areas of information systems), the logical aspects (forecasting models and their use), and aspects of principles taken from psychology, sociology, and ergonomics that are commonly used in the industry. What’s New in this Edition: The second edition introduces fields that are now becoming a part of the industrial engineering profession, alongside conventional areas (operations management, project management, quality management, work measurement, and operations research). In addition, the book: Provides an understanding of current pathways for professional development Helps students decide which area to specialize in during the advanced stages of their studies Exposes students to ergonomics used in the context of workspace design Presents key factors in human resource management Describes frequently used methods of teaching in the field Covers basic issues relative to ergonomics and human–machine interface Introduces the five basic processes that exist in many organizations Introduction to Industrial Engineering, Second Edition establishes industrial engineering as the organization of people and resources, describes the development and nature of the profession, and is easily accessible to anyone needing to learn the basics of industrial engineering. The book is an indispensable resource for students and industry professionals.

This book is for you if you want to work as an industrial engineer in a garment factory.By learning industrial engineers subject, you can bring changes and bring improvement in the factory where you are working and where you will be working.An engineering degree is not necessary to improve a factory's productivity and reducing the manufacturing cost. What is required is the right attitude. If you allow yourself to learn industrial engineering tools, you can learn most of them in one month. Then you can practice these IE tools and IE activities in the next 3 months. After that, you are ready for serving the apparel manufacturing industry. You can make things better in a garment factory.You need to find ways of doing things in a better way - which in turn can bring a huge improvement. If you can improve line efficiency by 1% each week, monthly efficiency improvement will be 4%. In a factory, to bring measurable improvement you need to fight against the odds, resistance from the line supervisor, and non-acceptance of new things and new concepts. To fight against these odds, you need to be strong within yourself through being more knowledgeable, logical, analytical, and proactive.This book will enrich your knowledge. The how-to guide part will increase your confidence in finding solutions and answers to the odd questions at the workplace.

Download or read book Training Engineering Students for Modern Technological Advancement written by Alves, Anabela Carvalho and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-12-17 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engineering education leads the preparation of the next generation of engineers. This is a difficult task as engineering practices rapidly evolve, pressured by the technological advancements promoted by these same engineers. Engineering schools are integrated into large and rigid higher education institutions (HEI) that are not known for their agility. Nevertheless, engineering educators must have the agility to go beyond HEI boundaries to close the gap between professional practice needs and engineering education. Training Engineering Students for Modern Technological Advancement examines the role of engineering teachers in preparing the next generation of engineers and presents perspectives on active learning methods for engineering education. As such, it contributes to bypassing the compartmentalized way of course organization typical in many HEIs and prepares for more agile engineering education. Covering topics such as game-based teaching methods, Industry 4.0, and management skills, this book is a dynamic resource ideal for engineers, engineering professors, engineering students, general educators, engineering professionals, academicians, and researchers.

Download or read book The Art of Happiness at Work written by Dalai Lama and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2004-09-07 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the authors who brought you the million-copy bestseller The Art of Happiness comes an exploration of job, career, and finding the ultimate happiness at work. Over the past several years, Howard Cutler has continued his conversations with the Dalai Lama, asking him the questions we all want answered about how to find happiness in the place we spend most of our time. Work-whether it's in the home or at an office-is what mostly runs our lives. We depend on it to eat, to clothe and shelter ourselves, and to take care of our families. Beginning with a direct correlation between productivity and happiness, Dr. Cutler questions His Holiness about the nature of work. In psychiatry and according to the Dalai Lama, our motivation for working determines our level of satisfaction. The book explores three levels of focus: survival, career, and calling. Once again, Cutler walks us through the Dalai Lama's reasoning so that we know how to apply the wisdom to daily life. This practical application of Buddhist ideas is an invaluable source of strength and peace for anyone who earns a living.
