Alumni and Friends

The Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering was founded in 1934 and graduated its first student in 1936 (we were the Department of Industrial Engineering at that time). Since then, our alumni have grown to nearly 5000 strong with B.S., M.S., M.E., and Ph.D. graduates. We plan to celebrate our 75th Anniversary on the weekend of November 6-8. Details can be found at: ISE 75th Anniversary.

We are creating new ways to stay in touch with all of you, including our recent newsletters:
