The major that my idiot pledge son thought would be fun to experiment with, causing his head to explode following second semester finals. Also known as an excuse to not sleep for 3 days straight.
Zach: Hey dude what are you doing
Nick: Drinking
Zach: I wish my life didn't suck but id does because I'm in Industrial Engineering.

Someone who is basically good at everything and does not want to be pigeon-holed as a certain "type" of engineer.
Minimum requirements for a GOOD Industrial Engineer are:
Genius level intelligence
High-level abstract thinking skills
Predominantly logic based thought patterns
Awesome computer skills
Sarcasm
Unfortunately, since the main focus of this field is primarily undefined, it tends to also attract people who aren’t smart enough to be a particular type of engineer, or who are lazy and thrive on lack of focus. These lame few have created a bad image for Industrial Engineering as a whole and have led to the field being sarcastically referred to as “Imaginary Engineering”.

College major adopted by prospective engineers dauted by courses in circuits, physical chemistry, thermodynamics, statics, fluid and soil mechanics, genetics, C++, talking to girls, and sobriety. The type that registers for that Stochastic Models class because he thinks it involves naked Croatian shutter fodder.
Nuclear engineering student: Yo Witness, word has it you dropped the bomb on civil engineering.
Mechanical engineering student: Yeah, you fumbling toward the Interesting and Easy?
Civil engineering student: Imaginary Engineering?
Biomedical engineering student: Inside Edition?
Industrial engineering student: My cat's breath smells like cat food.

Industrial engineers are not engineers in the Traditional sense. They are the "Engineers" that real Engineers make fun of during break time. In University, while Electrical and Mechanical Engineers are busy doing hard work, Industrial Engineers typically occupy their time by planning Pizza Parties among other non-engineering related activities. Industrial engineers don't typically take as many math classes as the other engineers because they often say its to hard, they also say programing is hard.
