Industrial engineering and management

The graduate program in industrial engineering and management at Afeka is an especially innovative program – designed for a variety of populations, including engineers who wish to advance in management roles, managers tasked with efficiently supervising engineering teams, and others. The exponential leap in the volume and complexity of the big data being collected and produced urgently requires to train managers who can leverage these data for optimization, forecasting, and statistical analysis. Yet engineers interested in graduate programs often feel that traditional business management programs aren’t suited to their needs. Unlike those programs, which focus primarily on soft management skills, Afeka has built a curriculum which is adapted to the variability of work environments, and which understands the specific managerial needs and challenges of different industries. The program combines a broad business understanding with advanced engineering skills and key engineering tools for managing engineering systems in diverse organizations. It is designed to address the ever-changing needs of the industry, including the need to integrate AI systems in management processes. The program provides the expertise needed to make informed decisions, tackle contemporary challenges, lead innovation processes, and effectively manage complex technological activities. Completing the program will enable graduates to quickly take on the management of complex systems and organizations. As someone who completed his graduate studies while balancing work and family life, I am familiar with the need to combine one’s academic studies in an optimal way. Thus, we’ve built a curriculum without Friday classes, and which combines afternoon and evening classes with remote learning – so that you can study, work, and spend time with your family. I will be at your disposal for any question, issue, or need – now and during the program.
