Design of Experiments | Essentials
Summary
Design of Experiments (DOE) is a statistical method that is used to systematically plan, execute and interpret experiments to optimise changes and improvement in product and process development in an efficient manner. Implementation of this technique enables improved selections of the optimal levels of multiple parameters to achieve a desired result.
In this short course, participants are guided through how to develop and execute DOE, as well as how to accurately interpret the experimental results. This short course will enable employees to improve the efficiency at which product development, process optimisation and process scaling occurs. Through expert facilitated training, participants will be guided through different examples and the use of specific software that will enable application of DOE.

Highlights
This short course consists of in-person workshops. The workshops are led by an expert facilitator that guides participants through the methods of DOE and how they can be implemented for pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Dr Laurence Orlando brings 15 years of pharmaceutical industry R&D experience, including senior roles in Chemistry, Manufacturing & Control, New Product Development, and Formulation Management across Australia, New Zealand and France, together with 17 years designing and delivering industry-grade training at Monash University's Faculty of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences.
Her HPLC and Design of Experiments (DOE) programs are built from the practitioner's seat. The HPLC training is delivered on current-generation UPLC instrumentation and covers method development, troubleshooting, and robustness as they occur in a real lab. Her DOE training demystifies the principles behind industry-standard software, equipping participants with transparent, immediately applicable tools for their own formulation and process challenges.
Her work has been recognised with the 2024 Australian Financial Review Higher Education Award and a National OLT Citation, and is widely endorsed by industry leaders across the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and analytical sectors.
Enrolment into this short course is subject to Terms and Conditions.
