Grades: Grades will be determined in the following fashion. There will be two midterms. Each midterm is worth 100 points and homework will be worth 60 points. There will be a group project worth 30 points. There will be 10 points given to students who fill out the online course evaluation. Your grade will be determined out of your total of 300 points.

 

HW: HW is to be uploaded to Blackboard by 5 p.m. the date due. Note: individual homework will be graded out of 100 points (i.e. a percent). At the end of the semester they will be averaged to give an average percent score on HW, this will determine your percent of the 60 point total for HW. Late HW is ½ off.

Exams: Exams are based primarily on lecture material and designated reading material. You are responsible for what is discussed in class. All exams are closed book, closed notes. I have created two hyperlinks to folders entitled “Older SPC Exams” and “Recent SPC Exams”. Due to the change in textbook, they can be useful on some topics but not a reliable guide for coming exams. While exam questions vary in difficulty, the answers are generally quite brief given the time constraints on the exams.

Software: You are free to use any software package you wish, but I recommend JMP. Help with statistical software packages is available at the help desk in MATH G175.  JMP, which is popular in Industry, is available in all ITaP labs and can be used remotely. JMP is also free to students. You can check out a copy from ITaP by going to STEW G31 (the location used to be in YONG). You can check out a copy overnight to load onto your laptop or desktop. It’s very good for preparing presentations. R software is open source (i.e. free) and the Program “qcc” in R will do most of the necessary control charts. Seen students do it in Matlab too.

Course Evaluations:

Send a copy of the form which states you have completed the course evaluation to the grader. There have been problems with evaluations sent to students going directly to their junk mail folders. Students should log on to the evaluation site by visiting www.purdue.edu/eval to fill out course evaluations.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       Course Objectives: To become fluent in the language and techniques of modern Quality Control and its applications. While areas of application are typically thought of as being in the area of manufacturing, (including processes related to ordering, accounting, record keeping and customer satisfaction) principles of Quality management are applicable to all types of organizations. These areas include: Health Care, Service Industry, Pharmaceutical, Education (at all levels), Non-Profit, Small Business, Software Reliability, etc.

 Course Topics:  Regression and calibration to be added.

1.       Basic concepts.

2.       Basic probability.

3.       Summarizing Data.

4.       Basic Tools (flowcharts, fishbone diagrams, Pareto charts).

5.       More Advanced Tools (process flow diagrams, Cause and Effect Matrices)

Other Reading:

    1. Understanding Variation-the Key to Managing Chaos, by Donald J. Wheeler. SPC Press, ISBN 0- 945320-35-3. If you are teaching an in-house course to people and they know zip, this is really good for a business setting. Short, concise, to the point.

2. Implementing Six Sigma, by Forrest W. Breyfogle III. John Wiley and Sons, ISBN 0-471-29659-7. An absolute must reference for the Six Sigma afficianado. Well written, very detailed (~700 pages) but well organized so special topics are easy to find. The first third, or so, is written to be very accessible to anyone who is literate in Quality thinking but wants to get a framework for Six Sigma thinking. The last two thirds are mainly technical statistical topics used in Six Sigma implementation and require a fairly good background in statistics, but also well written.

3. Lean Manufacturing-Tools, Techniques and How to Use Them, by William M. Feld. St. Lucie Press, ISBN 1-57444-297-X. Concise and to the point (lean, so to speak J). I never could figure out a good definition of “lean”, but to borrow a euphemism from a U.S. Supreme Court ruling “You can’t define it, but you know it when you see it.”.

4. What is Six Sigma, Pande, P. and Holpe, L.. McGraw Hill, IBSN: 0-07-141270-0. An excellent primer for someone with a basic knowledge of SPC. Many in Industry use it as a primer for new hires.
