In partnership with the College of Engineering, Integrated Business and Engineering (IBE) at the Mitch Daniels School of Business is an elite, cohort-based major. IBE students graduate with a bachelor’s degree from the Business School and concentrated coursework in engineering that prepares them to work at the intersection of business and technology, adapting to changing environments, leading teams and making key strategic decisions. You will be challenged in courses in both engineering and business, and by experiential learning projects that encourage innovation in team-based design and development. After graduation, thrive in management and leadership roles in the engineering and technology sectors. You will be able to make better management decisions because you will understand how engineers think and work and the technical aspects of their business or field. If you want to focus on business principles while also taking some engineering coursework to understand the industry, the IBE program is for you. You will have the education to help innovate in the technology and engineering sectors from within a business or organization.
