Other Factors We Consider
In addition to the above, you should consider some of the following factors:
Major Focus - How much a school focuses on industrial engineering students vs. other majors.
Major Demand - How many other industrial engineering students want to attend this school to pursue a master's degree.
Educational Resources - The amount of money and other resources allocated to students while they are pursuing their degree. These resources include such things as number of students per instructor and education expenditures per student.
Student Debt - How much debt industrial engineering students go into to obtain their master's degree and how well they are able to pay back that debt.
Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized industrial engineering related body.
