Do students have opportunities to work in jobs related to their major prior to graduation?
One of the strengths of the NDSU engineering college is the emphasis placed on cooperative education. Students are encouraged to take a semester off any time after their sophomore year to work in industry as an Industrial Engineering Co-op. Read Co-op experiences of current IME students. Whether it is manufacturing, consulting, or healthcare, a background in industrial engineering or manufacturing engineering opens up a huge wealth of potential job prospects for students. The NDSU Career Center is a great resource for all students, whether active in the job search or just curious about what is out there. Check out the NDSU employment report to see how graduates in either industrial engineering or manufacturing engineering stack up to other engineering disciplines.
