Bachelor of Science
In every successful organization, it’s not just the products that matter—but how the processes behind them are designed. From logistics and planning to human behavior and data-driven decision-making, business performance hinges on how well these elements work together.
In the Industrial Engineering bachelor’s program at TU/e, you’ll learn to view business processes as systems that can be analyzed, modeled, and improved. With a strong focus on technology, people, and data, this program equips you to design solutions that make companies more efficient, innovative, and resilient.
Designing Smarter Business with Engineering Insight
You'll develop your skills through hands-on projects, interdisciplinary teamwork, and real-life case studies from industry partners. Throughout the program, you’ll explore fundamental questions like:
- How do you optimize complex business processes?
- What’s the role of data and AI in operational decision-making?
- How do people influence the success of systems and workflows?
TU/e ranks 10th in the global Industrial Engineering ranking and 3rd in Europe! This places TU/e among some of the world’s most renowned institutions according to EduRank's 2025 ranking.

Practice-oriented
In the Industrial Engineering program at TU/e you will not analyze processes on an abstract level. Instead, you immediately get started with operational processes. We regularly take field trips, have a great deal of partnerships with multiple companies and do a lot of practical assignments. During research you use a lot of mathematics, data science and artificial intelligence models. Our students value this program for its hands-on approach, relatively small scale and excellent supervision by teachers.

Do you have a feel for and an interest in a combination of technology, organizations and business? Can you think outside of the box when it comes to solutions? Are you able to collaborate and want to invest in your communication skills? Then our 3-year Industrial Engineering bachelor's program is made for you.
As an Industrial Engineering student, be prepared to work hard. You successfully completed your pre-university certificate, including mathematics B. Affinity with design and technology is a must, experience in programming will come in handy. For more information, please visit the Admission and Enrollment page. Do you have an HBO propedeuse?
