Introduction to Design of Experiments
“This is the first Design of Experiments workshop I’ve attended that will likely change the way I do my work in a lasting and positive fashion.”
— Richard Inman, Process Engineer,
GTC Biotherapeutics
Program Description
WPI's Introduction to Design of Experiments (DOE) seminar provides a comprehensive exposure to the use of powerful DOE techniques for improving and optimizing any process. In just two days you will receive a solid foundation in proven approaches to identifying critical factors that significantly affect process performance and consistency. This dynamic and interactive workshop complements a basic statistical process control program and can also apply to new product and process development efforts.
During this program you will learn the basic principles of designed experiments and their important connection to statistical process control activities. You will learn how to set up and run basic factorial and screening experiments; how to analyze experimental outcomes; identify significant effects on process performance and consistency; and identify factors for further study or implementation. Then, in a workshop environment you will design and conduct experiments.
At the end of this seminar you will know why DOE is now recognized as a key strategic element to help organizations remain competitive and profitable in today's business climate which demands consistency and "six sigma" quality. And you will know why a working knowledge of DOE is fast becoming a critical skill set for technical professionals and managers.
Prerequisite: To benefit from this seminar, attendees must have completed a basic statistical process control seminar or have substantial background in basic statistics.
