Welcome to Objective Design of Experiments

Objective Chemical Experiments

Objective Chemical Experiments is a workshop for scientists, chemists, troubleshooters, and engineers in Design of Experiments (DOE) and Response Surface Methodologies (RSM) with a focus on chemical experimentation. The math is done by software. We can teach using your favorite software, or we can assess your needs and recommend a commercial software that is right for you.

Benefits of the Workshop

You will learn skills that can make you a top performer.
You will gain the knowledge you need to tackle and solve problems too complicated for most people
You will learn techniques to help you produce optimal results within your budget and on time.
You will learn to report your results in a professional manner that will impress your management and customers.
You will develop greater pride and confidence in your work.

In 4 days you will learn

How to identify the problem to be solved
How interactions among factors affect your results
How to optimize your product or process
How to make contour plots to show to customers and your management
How to measure and report precision in your results
How to find the most important factors when experimenting on a tight budget
How and when to use different types of designs for efficient, cost-effective, yet sufficiently thorough experiments
How to perform experiments with chemical mixtures

This is What Happens During the Training

You will work in teams of two, collecting realistic data from a Windows "laboratory" in seven exercises. Each exercise provides practice of the methods learned. The applications studied are taken from R&D projects published by scientists and engineers.
You will learn to use the software during the workshop. You use the software to design experiments and analyze your data. This practice on real problems provides the confidence necessary to use the methods immediately upon returning to work.
Everything you learn is practiced during the workshop. Everything taught is demonstrated by real examples. Questions are encouraged. You won't have any homework.

Texts
You will receive a copy of the slides, and exercise manual.

Prerequisites
You need to know how to add, subtract, multiply, divide, and take a square root using a calculator or by hand. Basic algebra is helpful, but not required.

"This is the first time I learned that the way I have been doing experiments is not the best at all. Bill is an excellent teacher who is easy to understand. This is going to be the most beneficial course I have ever taken."
