Focus and Scope

The International Journal of Industrial Engineering (IJIE) is a scholarly, peer-reviewed, open-access journal committed to advancing knowledge in the broad fields of industrial engineering, technology, and management. The journal provides a global platform for researchers, practitioners, and academicians to publish high-quality research articles, reviews, and case studies that contribute to both theoretical development and practical applications.

The scope of IJIE includes, but is not limited to, the following areas:

• Manufacturing and Production Systems
  Computer-integrated manufacturing, manufacturing engineering, production planning and control, process engineering, process optimization, productivity improvement, product design and development, reverse engineering, and mechatronics.

• Operations Research and Systems Engineering
  Operations research, operations management, systems engineering, enterprise engineering, systems simulation, stochastic processes, time and motion studies, and sociotechnical systems.

• Management, Planning, and Economics
  Corporate planning, management engineering, project management, engineering economics, financial engineering, value engineering, and facility management.

• Quality, Reliability, and Maintenance
  Quality engineering, statistical process control, reliability engineering, life testing, maintenance engineering, and continuous improvement methodologies.

• Human Factors and Safety Engineering
  Human factors engineering, ergonomics, occupational safety and health, workplace design, and safety engineering practices for industrial systems.

• Supply Chain and Logistics
  Supply chain management, logistics systems, materials management, and distribution strategies for global competitiveness.

• Sustainability and Environmental Engineering
  Environmental engineering, sustainable industrial practices, waste reduction, and resource-efficient manufacturing.

• Industrial Automation and Robotics
  Robotics, automation, intelligent systems, and the integration of advanced technologies in industrial environments.

• Interdisciplinary Applications
  Integration of industrial engineering with computer science, data analytics, artificial intelligence, electrical engineering, electronics engineering, civil engineering, environmental sciences, and management studies to develop innovative, cross-disciplinary solutions for real-world industrial challenges.

IJIE particularly encourages research that bridges theory and practice, fosters interdisciplinary collaboration, and delivers impactful solutions to contemporary industrial, technological, and organizational challenges.
