1 Historical Perspective of Engineering and Engineering Education 1.1. Introduction 1.2. Early Developments 1.3. The Modern Era 1.4. The Engineering Process 1.5. Engineering as a Profession 1.6. Professional Ethics 1.7. Professional Licensing 1.8. Engineering Education 1.9. ECPD Accreditation 1.10. Challenges of the Future

Summary: This book provides an introduction to industrial and systems engi-neering. It is especially designed for use as a text in an introduction to indus-trial engineering course. The purpose is to define industrial and systems engineering, describe its place in the business world, and give a broad picture of the functional areas with some solution techniques. The book is also use-ful to anyone desiring an overview of industrial engineering. This book is not a detailed text for any of the individual techniques pre-sented, but it does show what an industrial and systems engineer is capable of doing in a wide variety of organizations. Special attention is given to describ-ing situations in which the tools or techniques may be applied. Instead of taking the classical "technique looking for a problem approach," the prob-lems are first described and then the technique(s) applicable to the problems is (are) discussed
