Description

Objective:

The course objective is to provide an overview to engineers with an undergraduate engineering degree in the design and use of statistical quality control techniques.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Design and use control charts for variables
  • Design and use control charts for Attributes
  • Use graphical methods/numerical summaries to describe variation and use discrete and continuous distributions to describe important quality characteristics
  • Use the techniques of estimation and sampling in Statistical Quality Control
  • Understand the underlying principles of control chart theory and the principles of six other tools that constitute the SPC problem solving toolkit
  • Analyze the capability of a process
  • Design and use acceptance sampling techniques
  • Utilize specialized control charting schemes to overcome the weaknesses of traditional techniques

General Topics:

  • Introduction to quality, modeling quality, inferences about process quality, SPC Methods overview, control charts for variables, control charts for attributes, process and measurement system capability analysis, lot by lot acceptance sampling for attributes, and advanced topics
