Penn State IE frequently collaborates with companies who are interested in supporting industrial engineering education and research efforts.

Our corporate partners are an invaluable resource for the success of the department.  By providing Penn State IE students with internships, co-op opportunities, design projects, and research programs, our corporate partners help our faculty prepare students for the type of work they will experience after graduation. 

Our partnership with these companies are beneficial to both parties; we assist with engineering projects, processes, and problems while our business partners provide students with the real-world experience they need to be successful, world-class industrial engineering professionals.

The support we receive from industry partners is remarkable. From scholarships to equipment purchases to research initiatives, these companies help us provide the best learning environment possible for our students.

Our department collaborates with many different companies each year. If your company has a project for our IE students or a research question for the faculty members, please contact us at 814-865-7601 to discuss your needs.
