Course Goals / Objectives:
Reduce to practice the LeanSigma DMAIC methodology (Scientific Method tailored for process improvement) and ISE core curriculum principles and methods
Be exposed to a broad spectrum of DMAIC projects from a variety of businesses. Real time, in-flight project reviews (e.g. similar to `rounds? in a teaching hospital) are done weekly.
Develop and refine skills to apply the DMAIC methodology and drive through realization of a significant process improvement project
Strengthen their project management skills by creating and working with a `living? project plan
Develop writing and presentation skills through five `tollgate/milestone? meetings, a Final Tollgate Article, an industry standard final report and final tollgate presentation, and a poster depicting the life cycle of the project.
Develop and deliver `toll-gate? (project milestone) meetings for senior executives for a project and enhance confidence and professional meeting management skills
Have opportunities to practice and develop skills for core ISE courses such as Statistical Process Control, Design of Experiments, Production Systems Management, Human Factors Engineering, Operations Research, Work Measurement.
Demonstrate reduction to practice skill for a broad set of process improvement and ISE tools and must demonstrate competence in at least one advanced Lean and Six Sigma method/tool
