I removed Drew Brees from the listing on this page as his degree from Purdue was from the Krannert School of Management in Industrial Management and Manufacturing. This is a distinct and different program than it's school of Industrial Engineering. If his degree had been in Industrial Engineering, then I would not have done so. --Terrilyn 17:14, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
Hello, Page-editors seem to be adding non-notable names to this list. What is the solution to this problem? regards, 125.16.230.84 06:29, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
I propose removing Arthur Andersen from this list. Neither his article nor his firm's confirm that he was qualified in, or practiced industrial engineering. Arthur Andersen is, of course, well known in industry for management training but this is not the same thing. The only mention I can find is the ref for both articles states,
That is, as the article says, they were giving operational advice to companies based on accountancy principles. The man is still essentially an accountant, not an engineer. This is another example of this article confusing industrial management with industrial engineering. I will leave it in the article for a while longer to see if anyone else has any thoughts on this.

I have added a fact tag to the entry for Henry Ford. The article on him does not state that he is an industrial engineer. I tried to google him and find a reference which defined him as an industrial engineer and could not find one. I recognize that he is credited with inventing the production line. Unless a reference is provided that says he is an industrial engineer, it may be original research to call him one here.
I also offer up this reference
Henry Ford: critical evaluations in business and management By John Cunningham Wood. Quote: "So (Henry) Ford provided the vision and leadership, Sorensen the experiment, Avery the industrial engineering, and Klann supervised construction, with O'Connor supervising assembly."
Given this publication which say he was not the "industrial engineer" behind the invention of the production line, why is he on this list? An in-line citation is requested to support keeping him here. Thanks -

What's about people who weren't especially trained as industrial engineers but are well known as inventors or authors in that area? I think about people like Gavriel Salvendy, Marvin E. Mundel, Burrhus Frederic Skinner, Abraham Maslow, Frederick Herzberg, Douglas McGregor, James Womack, Daniel Jones, Daniel Roos, etc. -- Tasma3197 ( talk) 09:07, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
