Quality Engineering Minor

*Not a baccalaureate degree program

The introduction of new and emerging manufacturing techniques (e.g., additive/subtractive manufacturing, lean manufacturing, etc.) has made it possible for a domestic manufacturing resurgence. These techniques present novel challenges in the application of traditional quality systems thinking as well as a demand for skilled employees with an understanding of quality control and assurance systems. Having the depth of coursework associated with this minor, as well as a formal credential in this area, will enhance our graduates' knowledge of quality and their ability to obtain employment in related fields.
