This program was established over 20 years ago when the College of Engineering partnered with Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Kentucky, the originator and leading practitioner of Lean Systems, to teach and research lean systems. This partnership remains active today and supports coursework that includes carefully designed hands-on lab work, engaging teaching techniques, and consistency with Toyota's philosophy. Many courses include synchronous online instruction to maximize the opportunity for interaction and feedback.
Contact the DGC to confirm requirements or if you have questions about the course format.
