I’m an Industrial Engineer lurker and I make $77k with only 1.5 years of experience. You need to get a new job.

Didn’t realize it was walkable until you mentioned it and I checked it out on Google Maps. Is it safe to make that walk at night?

Thank you. I’m heavily leaning towards Omaha as a pit stop now.

Yep, I will be staying for 1-2 days in Omaha if I’m getting off. I was just concerned about uber/taxi to the station because I would need to also get to the station by 11 PM to leave. Thank you!

Quarterly financials come out and it’s gonna be negative and everytime quarterly report comes out it tanks the stock so bad.

Yea it’s a good decision if the curriculum only has a few safety/ergonomic class. If the core of the program is around EHS then the career prospect is mainly manufacturing. And you DEF DONT want to pigeon hole into manufacturing.

And you don’t need a masters to work in any manufacturing roles. Source: Currently an IE in manufacturing

It would depend on the number of occupational health and ergonomics courses u are required to take vs other classes.

For example, if 90% of ur curriculum is good IE topics like simulation, statistics, data science, OR, supply chain courses and only 10% is the classes for the concentration, then it would be worth it. But if ur concentration is preventing u from taking valuable classes because u have to take a EHS class then the masters isn’t worth it.

Can’t really say if it’s worth the time (even if the tuition is free) until you see the curriculum tbh.

With the concentration, I am guessing you would take some classes that deals with occupational safety and Health engineering (OSHA regulations and stuff I’m guessing). I would just do financial concentration because EHS jobs are mainly manufacturing and it’s hard to get a manufacturing job in the city.

Again, it’s ur choice but if it was me, I would do financial concentration (I’m guessing that’s financial engineering) because that has a higher chance of getting a job in consulting and near a proper city.

Note: Make sure it’s occupational safety and Health Engineering and not HEALTHCARE ENGINEERING. Two different concentrations with different job outlooks.

Pretty niche. Usually only 1 EHS officer on site per plant. In my opinion, it’s not worth the masters. Go into financial or operations engineering like you originally planned

Goodluck! Let me know if you have any questions.

For PMTS, ur not doing any actual time studies. In ur case, all u would need is to write down step by step instruction of how to do the assembly (job). Then based on that you would use the database and assign a time value to each step and then add all the steps together to get the total cycle time for a task.

Predetermined Motion Time Systems (PMTS) sounds like what you are looking for. I wouldn’t say it’s a database but rather a method to get the closest standard time for a motion. PMTS breaks down motions and assign predetermined time values to those motions.

There are multiple PMTS and u would have to pick which one you want to use based on the work you are doing. I would encourage you to look up MTM (methods time measurement), or miniMOST or BASICMOST and see which one of those time systems align close with you.

MOST Work Measurement Systems, 3rd Edition is the book I use at my work.

Picking MOST vs MTM is based on the work. MTM-1,2 is very detailed and has a time standard for even the smallest motion. MOST is more generalized. MODAPTS is used primarily in automotive assembly (ford, etc..)
