14 courses with the subject QUAL, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
QUAL 1200Measurement and Test Equipment4
Credit(s) 1 credit lecture/3 credits lab This course will introduce the application for inspection practices and methods specific to manufactured components. Utilization of advanced measurement equipment including programming and execution of measurement plans related to computer-aided inspection systems and Coordinate Measurement Machines (CMM) will be covered.
Credit(s) 2 credits lecture/0 credits lab This course will provide a working knowledge of the processes and procedures standardized through International Organization for Standardization (ISO) required in a quality program. Subjects such as Quality Management Systems (QMS), documentation practices, quality policies, and industry related requirements will be covered.
Credit(s) 2 credits lecture/2 credits lab This course will cover an in-dept knowledge of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) applications. Creation of functional gauging and use of computer-aided inspection tools will be utilized to meet GD&T specifications for conformance. Students will apply and interpret situations and methods utilizing GD&T in an inspection environment as applied to production parts and meeting an inspection plan.
Credit(s) 1 credit lecture/1 credit lab This course will instruct students on the handling and disposition of products based on the acceptance and discrepancy to specified standards. Processes regarding corrective action/preventative action (CAPA), quality auditing, product traceability, first article inspections (FAI), classification of discrepancies and material review boards (MRB) will be discussed. Concepts of statistical process control (SPC) will be introduced.
Credit(s) 1 credit lecture/3 credits lab This course will cover the methodology and procedures pertaining to the verification of accuracy and precision of inspection measuring equipment. Processes of gauge adjustment and compensation, gauge R&R, qualifications, gauge standard traceability, and repeatability will be discussed.
Credit(s) 1 Credit Lecture/2 Credits Lab This course will cover the methodology and procedures pertaining to the verification of accuracy and precision of inspection measuring equipment. Processes of gage adjustment and compensation, gage repeatability and reproducibility studies (Gage R&R), qualifications, gage standard traceability, and repeatability will be discussed.
Credit(s) 2 credits lecture/0 credits lab This course outlines ethical values necessary to uphold quality standards for consumer products. Legal, workmanship, and safety perspectives on the need for trustworthy data to be collected and reported will be presented. Cost of Quality will also be explored.
Credit(s) 1 Credit Lecture/0 Credits Lab This course outlines ethical values necessary to uphold quality standards for consumer products. Legal, workmanship, and safety perspectives on the need for trustworthy data to be collected and reported will be presented. Costs of Quality will also be explored.
Credit(s) 1 credit lecture/2 credits lab This course covers fixture design aimed at holding and placement of production pieces for inspection with an emphasis on accessibility and stability. Designed fixtures will be produced and utilized within the coursework using a variety of methods including 3D printing and conventional machining methods.
Credit(s) 1 Credit Lecture/1 Credit Lab This course will cover a variety of software utilized in the calculation and management of measurement data, analysis of measured results, and programming of measurement instruments. The software utilized will generate reports and provide clear communication of the results.
QUAL 2400Process Performance Capability and Reliability2
Credit(s) 1 credit lecture/1 credit lab This course will cover the concepts and tools used to identify and control processes. Inspection data at intervals in the production process will be statistically analyzed to reliably determine the frequency and causes of production discrepancies. Analyzing of data with tools including Statistical Process Control (SPC), in-process inspection sampling, variable and attribute charting, process capability, risk assessment and mitigation, confidence levels and limits, targeting, and probability will be utilized. Applied statistics and histograms will also be utilized.
