This course will emphasize on application of different theories, tools, and techniques for Quality Control and Improvement. Most of the topics will be discussed with relevant problems and solutions in MINITAB 19 software interface. The course will emphasize two broad areas (e.g., Quality of Design and Quality of Conformance). In Quality of Design, relevant topics, such as VOC, Kano model, QFD, and FMEA, will be discussed with examples. Subsequently, the Quality of Conformance topics, such as quality control (e.g., statistical process control) and various topics related to process capability analysis, are discussed. With an objective to discuss topics related to the design of experiments, few important statistical techniques, such as hypothesis testing, ANOVA, regression analysis, and MSA are covered in this course. Finally, various Design of Experiment (DOE) techniques for factor screening and quality improvement are elaborated with examples. These techniques include factorial designs, fractional factorial design, multiple response optimization, and the Taguchi method.
