Quality and Reliability Engineering

Quality Engineering covers the tools and techniques employed in manufacturing and
service industries. In product manufacturing, these techniques help prevent mistakes or
defects in products. In service processes, these tools are used to avoid problems when
delivering solutions or services to customers. A closely related knowledge area is
Reliability Engineering. These concepts are used to determine the ability of a system or
component to function under stated conditions for a specified period.
