Abstract

Online programs are becoming more appealing for engineering departments and related fields in the last few years. Industrial and systems engineering (ISE) and supply chain management (SCM) online programs are one of the fastest growing online programs. The paper includes a survey of the current teaching trends and study plans in ISE and SCM online graduate programs. There is a common ground between Industrial and systems engineering and supply chain management. In general, there are some similar courses in the two fields and an overlap in the study plans. This is more obvious in the undergraduate level; this paper introduces a comparison between the ISE and SCM online programs at the graduate level. The survey of this study can be used to develop a graduate online curriculum for an up-to-date program that combines ISE and SCM.
