A. Engineering
Engineering is concerned with the application of scientific knowledge to the solution of problems and to the quest for a “better life.”
4. Definition of Industrial Engineering
Industrial engineering is concerned with the design, improvement, and installation of integrated systems of people, materials, information, equipment, and energy. It draws upon specialized knowledge and skill in the mechanical, physical, and social sciences together with the principles and methods of engineering analysis and design to specify, predict, and evaluate, the results to be obtained from such systems
by machinery: it has played an increasing role. on a large scale: with the mass production

1. 重点语句翻译（把下列语句翻译成中文）
① Industrial engineering (IE) is emerging as one of the classic and novel professions that will be counted for solving complex and systematic problems in the highly technological world of today.
Engineering and Science
Engineering and science have developed in a parallel, complementary fashion, although not always at the same pace. Obviously, knowledge cannot be applied until it is discovered, and once discovered, it will soon be put to use. In its efforts to solve problems, engineering provides feedback to science in areas where new knowledge is needed. Thus, science and engineering work hand in hand.
