Best Universities for Industrial Engineering in North America

Below is a list of best universities in North America ranked based on their research performance in Industrial Engineering. A graph of 248K citations received by 7.24K academic papers made by 93 universities in North America was used to calculate publications' ratings, which then were adjusted for release dates and added to final scores.

We don't distinguish between undergraduate and graduate programs nor do we adjust for current majors offered. You can find information about granted degrees on a university page but always double-check with the university website.
