ASQ’s plan is to conduct an Open House and also begin the formal process of petitioning the Board of Directors at the National American Society of Quality to recognize the local ASQ Student Chapter. ASQ Pittsburgh board members were extremely supportive of the formation of the Student Chapter for this outreach effort.
The Pittsburgh Section plans to provide the following Student Benefits:
- Mentoring opportunities for students
- Industry tours, students get a chance to see quality applied in a “real world” setting
- Provide experts for on-campus speaking engagements
- Lean Six Sigma up dates
- Operational Excellence
- Quality Engineering applied to “real world” applications
- Business Process Improvement
- Malcolm Baldrige overview
- ISO 9000 up dates
- Statistical applications
- Provide leads for summer jobs
- Provide leads for internships during the semesters
- Provide leads for jobs on graduation through the national ASQ database of job openings
