A good measurement system is an underlying requirement for improving quality, throughput and waste problems. This certificate focuses on calibration and dimensional measurements, including coordinate measurements. Pressure, temperature and mass are also covered. The courses in this short-term certificate apply directly to the Industrial Engineering Technology (OPTIO.S.AAS) degree.
Program Outcomes
- Apply problem-solving and quality improvement tools and processes.
- Apply statistical process control techniques and capability analyses to determine the state of statistical control and conformity to product and process requirements.
- Plan, control and assure product and process quality.
