Industrial Engineering is a field of engineering science that concentrates on the analysis, design, implementation and improvement of an integral system that consists of people, equipment, funds, materials, and methods. In the context of the Industrial Engineering ontology Telecommunications Industry is an integral system that desperately need the presence and contribution of industrial engineering expertise.

Departing from such thinking, IT Telkom in its mission of being a provider of human resources in the Indonesian telecommunications industry considers it important to establish the School of Industrial Engineering as part of a clump of field engineering in IT Telkom which focuses on the field of ICT in conjunction with the School of Electrical and Communication and the School of Informatics.
