Engineer the Future: Interactive VR, 3D Scanning, Games, and Innovation

Engineering
Have you ever wondered how Amazon delivers millions of packages efficiently, how hospitals like Norton reduce patient wait times, how theme parks like Disney manage crowds, or how companies like Apple coordinate global supply chains? The answer often lies in Industrial & Systems Engineering (ISE), a field dedicated to designing smarter systems that bring together people, technology, information, and resources to solve real-world problems. Prominent leaders with ISE background include Tim Cook (former CEO, Chairman at Apple), María Corina Machado (2025 Nobel Peace Prize winner), Mike Duke (former CEO of Walmart), and Nancy Currie (NASA). Visit us to experience Virtual Reality, 3D scanning/printing, play fun games, and grab some snacks!

Industrial and Systems Engineering

Industrial & Systems Engineers are systems thinkers who innovate at the intersection of people, processes, business, and technology. ISE offers a wide range of career opportunities – entertainment (Disney), automotive (Tesla, Ford), logistics (UPS, Amazon), healthcare (Norton), defense (Boeing, DoD), manufacturing, retail (Kroger, Walmart), financial (Bank of America, Wells Fargo), and much more. ISE is #1 fastest growing discipline (US Bureau of Labor Statistics) and #1 among all engineering majors in terms of jobs (US News).  It is also the #2 highest paying major (CNBC news).
