advice for graduate studies preparation
So, I have a 4-year bachelors of science in occupational health and safety engineering that I achieved about 1.5 year ago and I've been working in a job related to my degree. But I'm thinking about continuing my graduate studies in an engineering field (e.g. industrial engineering). where can I find some internationally eligible courses and certificates to reach a certain level in academics where I can starts applying for industrial engineering programs and such?

you typically need a bachelors degree in a traditional engineering discipline or a degree such as maths or physics to enroll onto a postgraduate master’s degree.
As such i think you would struggle to find masters courses as they would require you to be confident on the analytical side of engineering. How comfortable are you with advanced linear algebra, differential equations, statistics, complex numbers, Fourier transforms, calculus, using computational mathematics tools etc. (relative to STEM undergrad level)?

Thank you for taking the time and answering! I have already assessed the credits that I have passed and the ones that I haven’t so
I am pretty confident in learning math and statistics related courses because I have passed general mathematics and biostatistics with good grades (also in Solid State Physics, Fluid Mechanics, General Physics, radiation Physics)
And safety related topics such as Electrical Safety, Fire Safety, Risk Management, Industrial Ventilation, Vibration, Noise and lighting
These are what I have credits on and my assumption on what more I might need for IE are: Linear Algebra, Probability Theory / Applied Statistics, Operations Research, Supply Chain & Logistics, Engineering Economics / Cost Analysis, Data Analytics & Simulation
Now I need more courses and materials (preferably with eligible certification) to fill in this gap in my knowledge
