Credits: (4)
Typically taught:
Spring [Full Sem]

This is the third and final course in the Quality series for the MFET program. Six Sigma methods use statistical tools to bring about continual improvement of quality in manufactured goods and services and to document that positive change has occurred. These tools include: Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), Measurement Systems Analysis, Control Charts, Multi-Vari and Multivariate charts, Process Capability Analysis, and Design of Experiments. Students will learn and apply these methods and tools through class participation and completion of required projects. Course will utilize Minitab and Microsoft Excel spreadsheet software.
