What is it?
Definition of Research

A Systematic and Organized Effort to Investigate a Specific

Problem or Phenomena That Needs a
Solution or Explanation
Science
Prime objective: increase knowledge of natural
system

Research
(Scientific Method)
■ Formulate Hypothesis
■ Execute Experiment
■ Analyze Test Result
■ Generalize Hypothesis
Theory/Law (New
Knowledge)
■ Publish the New Knowledge
Scientific Attitude

“…scientific attitude is a way of looking at the world. It is

an attitude that values craftsmanship, with pride in
creativity, high quality standards, and hard work.”
(Neuman, 1994, p. 8).

Grinnell (1987, p. 125):”Many people learns about the

“scientific method” rather than about the scientific attitude.
While the “scientific method” is an ideal construct, the
scientific attitude is the way people have of looking at the
world. Doing science includes many methods; what makes
them scientific is their acceptance by the
scientific collective.” (Neuman, 1994, p. 8)

WHY IE WAS
BORN ?
Industrial Engineering ?

Industrial Engineering Is Concerned With the Design,

Improvement, and Installation of Integrated Systems of
People, Material, Information, Equipment, and Energy. It
Draws Upon Specialized Knowledge and Skill in the
Mathematical, Physical, and Social Sciences Together With
the Principles and Methods of Engineering Analysis and
Design to Specify, Predict, and Evaluate the Results to Be
Obtained From Such System

Impact of Operations Research

The development of industrial engineering has been greatly

influenced by the impact of an analysis approach called
operations research.

This approach originated in England and the United States

during 2nd World War and was aimed at solving difficult war-
related problems through the use of science, mathematics,
behavioral science, probability theory, and statistics.
Impact of Digital Computers

Digital computers permit the rapid and accurate handling

of vast quantities of data, thereby permitting the IE to
design systems for effectively managing and controlling
large, complex operations.

The digital computer also permits the IE to construct

computer simulation models of manufacturing facilities
and the like in order to evaluate the effectiveness of
alternative facility configurations, different management
policies, and other management considerations.
Emergence of Service
Industries

In the early days of the industrial engineering profession,

IE practice was applied almost fully in manufacturing
organizations. After the 2nd World War there was a
growing awareness that the principles and techniques of IE
were also applicable in non-manufacturing environments.

Thousands of Industrial Engineers are employed by

government organizations to increase efficiency, reduce
paperwork, design computerized management control
systems, implement project management techniques,
monitor the quality and reliability of vendor-supplied
purchases, and for many other functions
