• A lot of equations that are specific to the field
TEXTBOOK
• This particular textbook emphasizes
computer programming in engineering.
• Each page contains directions and
equations for software programming.
• The emphasis is on computer models and
focuses on the skills needed to develop
and use these models.
TEXTBOOK: APPLIED STATISTICS
AND PROBABILITY FOR ENGINEERS
• Course: IE 33000
• Organization of book: Preface, Table of
Contents, Chapters, Appendix, and Index
• Important equations, definitions, and charts
were highlighted in blue
• Focused on the engineering aspect of statistics
• Index and appendix give helpful equations
from each chapter
• Practice problems at the end of each chapter
INTERVIEW
• Patrick Brunese, Ph.D
• Senior Academic Administrator
• As an engineer you are able to think
and solve problems, but as an
Industrial Engineer there is a broader
array of knowledge that provides
an approach unlike any other.
INTERVIEW WITH INDUSTRIAL
ENGINEERING PROFESSOR
Steven J. Landry
• He is the Associate Professor and Associate
Head of the School of Industrial Engineering at
Purdue
• Studied electrical engineering at Worcester
Polytechnic institute in Massachusetts
• IE’s have more job opportunities now.
• Teaches from the textbook I researched
• Wants to be an international voice in the future
• Advice: understand why you need to know
what is being taught to you and choose your
electives wisely
• “It is only recently that I've realized that the
way I think is highly conducive to engineering
over other fields.”

Plethora of tables and graphs
Minimal use of images
Often compare to concepts/findings of the past
Weak use of lexis (stronger use of economic/business lexis)
TEXTBOOK
• Format
• Online
• Structure
• Broken down into table of contents for each chapter with a clickable
interface for topics within each chapter
• Highly organized
TEXTBOOK (CONT.)
• Videos
• Definitions in blue (clickable) font
• Not frequently used
• Provides background information
instead of just concise, raw material
(as provides in class)
• Gives students secondary tool for
comprehension of material
• Large tables and graphs
• Thoroughly explained
TEXTBOOK (CONT.)
• Joseph V Balagtas
• Associate Professor of Ag Economics
• Professor Balagtas “conduct research on the
economics of agricultural markets, including
domestic and international agricultural policy,
poverty and food security, and industrial
organization of agricultural markets.”
• “After college I joined the U.S. Peace Corps and
worked with subsistence farmers in Bolivia. In
Bolivia I met a few agricultural economists who
seemed to have a good grasp of why people
were poor, and what society could do about it”
INTERVIEW
TYING IT TOGETHER: SIMILARITIES
• The organization of the journal articles
• Standard: introduction, methods, results, conclusion
• Always a push to better the lives of the public
• Med Lab identifies different organisms in patient samples
• Medical research develops new radiotracers and
medications
• Interdisciplinary in terms of research
• Biology, Chemistry and Anatomy
• Research is conducted through experimentation
• Majors are heavily science related
TYING IT TOGETHER
• Jobs for graduates in Industrial Engineering can be in any field, however, the
aim is to make business more efficient and cheaper without sacrifice of
quality.
• For example, Amazon hires I.E.’s to make warehouses use space effectively
and finding packages simpler.
• IE’s look to improve peoples lives through coming up with solutions to
everyday problems
TYING IT ALTOGETHER
- A part of our lives
- CompE works on improving devices
TYING IT TOGETHER
• 70% more food by 2050
• Feeding the masses
• Effective use of resources
• Development of new technologies and techniques
