From the Desk of Head
It is my immense pleasure to introduce the Department of Industrial and Production Engineering (IPE). The department focuses on the study of manufacturing processes, management science, and the improvement of the productivity, quality and operation of a system. It was established in 2011 as one of the engineering degree awarding departments of Dhaka University of Engineering & Technology, Gazipur (DUET) to offer the Bachelor of Science in Industrial and Production Engineering (BSc. in IPE) degree. Each year, the department admits 30 (Thirty) undergraduate students to develop them as competent engineers with managerial capabilities for our industries.
The Department places a lot of importance on having a healthy and close relationship between the teachers and the students so that each student can reach their full potential and grow. While the department emphasizes the development of technical knowledge among the students, it also makes a lot of effort to help students improve their management skills so that they can have an advantage in their professional lives. The graduates of our department work in a variety of fields, such as Ready-Made Garments (RMG), Manufacturing, Food and Beverage, Plastics, Automobiles, etc. They also work in a number of different departments, like Production, Operations Management and Planning, Product Design, Supply Chain, Health & Safety, Procurement, Logistics, and Quality Control. In the Department of IPE, students and graduates are its most important assets because they have the ability to make a big difference in society.
This department’s purpose is not just to make good engineers, but also to make responsible leaders who can help in the development of the country as well as the world through their technical knowledge, leadership skills, and industrial expertise.
