Reintroducing six sigma DMAIC processes using a hands on approach

In recent years industries and colleges have had a greater need for improved six sigma training. Presented in the following paper will be an up to date analysis of the current six sigma curriculum being taught here at Bradley University. This paper attempts to address the problem with the lack of educational training engineers have when entering a six sigma improvement process for their given industry. With the help of peer evaluations, in class lectures and, hands on projects, will an improved curriculum be introduced. In order to present this course, a case study following a 3D printing team using the DMAIC six sigma methodologies will be further analyzed.
