Course description
Our life is supported with products. Quality is the most important factor for the product manufacturing. This lecture shows quality control and quality improvement. Through some exercises of numerical analysis and scientific measurements on every lecture, students will acquire the skills to become leaders who can practice quality management.
Purpose of class
This lecture provides an understanding of quality control in manufacturing of product, basis of scientific measurements and numerical analysis for the quality evaluation, and methods for problem solving and improvement. The latter part includes the quality of familiar products to deepen understanding of quality control and develop practical skills as leaders in quality management.
Goals and objectives
  1. To explain the system of quality control in product manufacturing.
  2. To explain the principles of measurement technologies for the quality control.
  3. To propose methods for solving problems and improvements in product manufacturing.
