ENGT 260 - Quality Fundamentals

Description:ENGT 260 is an introduction to industrial quality control systems and the development of the concept of total quality control engineering, process improvement, and quality information systems. An analysis of the step-by-step process for quality assurance and improvement is studied. Topics include Total Quality Management (TQM), Total Quality Control (TQC), Statistical Process Control (SPC), Continuous Improvement Processes (CIP), Six Sigma, Organizations Development, Supplier Quality, benchmarking, and the economic impact of quality costs to provide for a complete view of manufacturing today. The course includes quality systems selection, project implementation including sampling plans, data gathering, data analysis, problem solving, interpretation, X-R charts, and attribute charts. Emphasis is placed on how the quality process is utilized to determine the process refinements necessary to improve quality, process capability, improve productivity, and determine continuing improvement strategies. Offered in Fall.
