Where did you hear it from? I believe that each engineering major's opinion of how "easy" it is varies based on their interests and skills. Like every other engineering subject, industrial engineering has its own set of unique challenges and complications. Because it has more of an emphasis on efficiency, system improvement, and optimization than on intricate structures or hard science, it may appear easier to understand to some.
Industrial is considered as the business major of engineering. But I think no engineering major is easy. Plus it's hard to gauge and compare difficulty between disciplines since not many people do double degrees in industrial and civil/mech/electrical/chem/etc. If they had done one and moved on to the other later, they may have found some stuff easier as they had gone through it.
I don’t think so
I don’t think there’s anything easy tbh, some majors might be less math heavy compared to others, but I think every engineering major has its place. Easy and difficult is relative to every person rather than the major itself.
Think about it, at some point in life ABCs and simple addition, multiplication etc. was difficult and at a certain point that changes. So easy is extremely relative and depends on person to person. It’s unfair to categorize a whole major into those buckets
In my opinion, yes it is. My bachelor's was in Engineering so i took classes in other engineering disciplines as well before finally settling on IE.
I know some people from college who didn't like that it wasn't very technical compared to other engineering disciplines.
But if you like numbers and thinking through the easiest way to do stuff then you would find it easy.
