ÚSI-RTSRPAcad. year: 2018/2019
The subject “Statistical Process Control” will familiarize students with the basic methods of process control, systemic and statistical analysis applicable in management of an organization and subordinate processes. Students will also understand the rules for identification of processes and selection of statistical variables for serial and piece production processes. The students will master the rules of data collection and sorting, their analysis and use for statistical process control.

Learning outcomes of the course unit
The subject “Statistical Process Control” allows students to gain knowledge of methods of statistical process control as a part of complex quality management of a company. Students will also master identification of processes suited for statistical control. They will learn to apply individual methods of statistical quality control when solving problems, which may arise in manufacturing companies as well as service companies. Students will also learn to identify the key and supporting processes and to practically apply the methods of statistical quality control.
Prerequisites
Knowledge of technology and materials. Knowledge of physics and applied statistics. Knowledge of quality management.
Co-requisites

Aims
The first goal of “Statistical Process Control” is to familiarize students with the basic statistical methods of process control. Another goal is to teach students to use the fact, that real processes have a stochastic character, thus the rational approach to their management requires the application of statistical methods. The third goal is to teach students to apply statistical process control tools to standard and specific company processes and to devise appropriate improvement measures in the context of quality management system improvement.
