As one of the activities lined up for the silver anniversary celebration of the Industrial Engineering program in the University of San Carlos, this 2010 conference initiates a regular gathering of experts and practitioners in the field where research developments and best practices are exchanged in support to the rising importance of industrial engineering principles and the profession itself. This can also be a venue for possible collaboration with institutions, industries and other organizations from across the globe.
Gatherings as this are deemed essential in strengthening industrial engineering core competencies in preparation of our big leap to a better and globally recognized institution in the next years.
CALL FOR PAPERS
The conference theme “Preparing for the Big Leap” is very timely as economy starts to turn around. We are then calling for papers anchored at the following industrial engineering topics (but not limited to) that may be beneficial for organizations as they embrace new opportunities and challenges with the dawning of economic recovery:

Schoolworks had been piling up since it was the final month of the academic year. We had projects on almost all of our major subjects, and the discussions were not getting any easier.
I lost my focus during the second half of the semester. But I carried on.
This semester, I was pretty sure I wouldn’t fail any subject. And I didn’t. But I didn’t get really good grades either. Just so-so, I think. How good is good? And how so-so is so-so?
Anyway, I’m afraid I won’t be part of the DL for this semester.
We have no grade for one subject yet since we still have a project to continue this April. Unless I get a really good grade in this one, it’s bye-bye DL (and discount) for now.
I told my mom about it (via text), and I guess she just understood the pressure I was in. I just hope I’d be able to recover next semester. Hahaha.
Yeah, it’s just 3 days (2.5, technically), but we already got used to calling it the IE Week.
February 24 – Put Up
Though we weren’t really the ones who built them as we had some carpenters to do it, still, we exerted effort in beautifying our booths.

I love stars!
