The society is also a member of PIIE (Philippine Institute of Industrial Engineers), a premier organization of BS Industrial Engineering graduates and students, and IE professionals in the Philippines.

History
The society was first recognized by the university and its school director-then Rey Dalde in 2002 on the month of August with the efforts of its first student officers for the school year 2002-2003 (June 2002-March 2003) being headed by their president-then, Maria Fe dela Cruz. The society's by-laws has been written mainly by Cherryl C. Marudo. According to the by-laws, the name of the organization is Society of Industrial Engineering Students (or SIES). But, for some reasons, it became locally known as SIE (without the second S which means Students) probably because its name structure has been compared to the university's College of Engineering. Aside from SIE, the society is also known in the acronym UPHSDSIE, with UPHSD, the university's acronym just to know that the society is in that said university. But still, SIE would do.
