    CHICAGO, IL, October 16, 2018 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The featured cover story "Forward Thinking: Building the Future at Indiana University" details IU's Master of Science in Intelligent Systems Engineering (SICE) degree program which was established in 2016. IU created a forward thinking program, using curriculum designed from scratch – allowing for a blend of traditional engineering concepts and modern perspectives. Their program offers six engineering tracks to choose from with insights into each of them; and all of which provide the opportunity for cutting-edge innovation that will shape tomorrow.

Students in the SICE's master's in ISE program have the flexibility to create their path to a degree by following a selection of four paradigms on how they want to learn. Raj Acharya, Dean of SICE says "Our intelligent systems engineering program is unique because we're so focused on how we can use technology to build the world to come."
