Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences
The goal of this subject is to deepen the knowledge about the quality management for electronic system development used in the practice. Subject is devoted to the practical application of methods used for Automotive SPICE, Functional Safety and Design for Six Sigma not only from the perspective of manager but from the perspective of real usage by engineers. Graduates will understand and be able to apply these approaches and methods during the development of electronics automotive systems and will be able to be integrated to the development teams in the automotive electronics development industry with already practical knowledge about the state of the art methods.

Summary
A significant part of quality in automotive electronics development comes in the following three dimensions:
Automotive SPICE® (ISO/IEC 15504): Quality linked to the development process of software and electronics.
Functional Safety (ISO 26262): Quality associated with the achievement of Functional Safety requirements.
Design for Six Sigma: Focus on the reliability and robustness of products and production processes.
Automotive manufacturers (OEMs) demand from their suppliers increasingly high performance levels in all these three dimensions.The most successful companies have an integrated view on this three-dimensional space. This essentially means that they achieve to take the related aspects into account in an integrated and systematic way from the very early design phases over the whole product creation cycle. In order to be able to do so, they have to qualify employees who are able to understand the essentials of the three aforementioned domains, and therefore act as links between the domain-experts.
This subject deals with these three topics and integrate them into one compact course. The subject is devoted to the practical implementation of the methods used in the mentioned areas of development quality and their integration during the real development. Furthermore, the successful graduates from this subject can obtain ECQA Certified Automotive Quality Skills Integrated industry certificate.

Practices:
Students will work on their examples under the supervision of lecturer. Students' task will be to elaborate practical development example based on the knowledge from lectures. Students will directly apply specific methods. Examples will be loaded to the training portal where students from other universities have access and upload their practices as well. Students have the availability to see the other groups work and learn from them eventually even cooperate with students from different university.
