Random Models, Nested and Split-plot Designs
Many experiments involve factors whose levels are chosen at random. A well-know situation is the study of measurement systems to determine their capability. This course presents the design and analysis of these types of experiments, including modern methods for estimating the components of variability in these systems. The course also covers experiments with nested factors, and experiments with hard-to-change factors that require split-plot designs. We also provide an overview of designs for experiments with response distributions from nonnormal response distributions and experiments with covariates.
Design and analyze experiments where some of the factors are random
Design and analyze experiments where there are nested factors or hard-to-change factors
Analyze experiments with covariates

FAQ
When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
What will I get if I subscribe to this Specialization?
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
Is financial aid available?
Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
Reviews
THIS FULL COURSE WAS EXCELLENT. IT WILL HELP IN MY PROJECT. THANK YO DOCTOR MONTGOMERY SIR.
Comprehensive and practical course in the Design of Experiments specialization. Helps reinforce the need for a physical experiment to align with constraints on randomization.
Very exhaustive information about random models and nested and split-plot designs. Thank you to Professor Douglas C. Montgomery and Coursera Team.
