9 Ways to Partner with ISE
The ISE Department works with a wide network of industry partners and our alumni. Listed below are nine ways in which ISE and the professional community are working together for mutual benefit.
Got your own idea? We are always eager to explore new and creative ways to team up with our alumni and industry friends.
1. Philanthropy and Sponsorship
Outside support through philanthropy and sponsorship allows us to enhance our programs. The ISE Enhancement Fund addresses one of the department’s greatest needs, discretionary support. These funds allow the Department Head to quickly respond to these opportunities and challenges. It also enables us to increase the number of graduate fellowships, undergraduate scholarships, and much more. For more information, contact Griffin Lamb | grlamb@ncsu.edu.
2. Project Opportunities
ISE’s Senior Design course is a chance to work with students who can analyze your proposal and provide a valuable solution. For more information, contact our Undergraduate Services Coordinator at ise-undergradoffice@ncsu.edu | 919.513.2189
3. Presentations and Learning Opportunities in the Classroom
You can interact with ISE students through class presentations, panels and lectures. This allows you to engage students in real-world problems and solutions. For more information, contact Dr. Julie Swann | jlswann@ncsu.edu | 919.515.6423.
4. Summer Camp Opportunities
You can interact with future ISE students through class presentations and hands-on exercises. This is a great way to expose students to what it’s like to be an industrial engineer.
5. Tours of Industrial Facilities
Have students tour your industrial facilities. This is a great opportunity for students to see principles taught in the classroom getting put into action. For more information, contact Dr. Rohan Shirwaiker | rashirwa@ncsu.edu | 919.515.6414.
6. Cooperative Education (Co-ops) and Internships

Students also benefit by gaining valuable work experience. For more information, contact Dr. Julie Swann | jlswann@ncsu.edu | 919.515.6423.
