Course Outline Statistical Quality Control

This document provides information about the course "Statistical Quality Control" offered at Jimma University College of Natural Science, Department of Statistics. The 3 credit, 3 hour course introduces common statistical methods for quality control including control charts, process monitoring techniques, acceptance sampling, and reliability testing. Upon completing the course, students will be able to apply quality tools, establish quality control procedures, select control materials, calculate quality statistics, and evaluate Ethiopia's experience with statistical quality control. The course will be taught through lectures, assignments, tutorials, and a field trip, and students will be assessed through tests, a field trip report, and a final exam.
