Integrated Business and Engineering Honors Program

The Integrated Business & Engineering Honors Program (IBE) is an academic program at The Ohio State University that seeks to develop top undergraduate students into future leaders of industry. Seeing the increasing demand for graduates who are well versed in business, communication, and technical skills, The Ohio State University College of Engineering and the Fisher College of Business worked together to create an rigorous four year program that encourages students to reach their full intellectual and personal potential. Each year, the IBE program offers 36 honors students the opportunity to participate in a program that is strategically designed to develop the ability to communicate across business and technical domains and the ability to enact a multidisciplinary approach to problem solving. The IBE Program helps students develop an appreciation for the distinct skills of colleagues in other disciplines and to develop judgment regarding the ways in which to effectively engage a group with different skills to solve complex, multi-dimensional problems.
