Learning outcomes
After having performed the study module, the student will know the basic terms of metrology and the operating principles of metrology systems at national and at international level. The student knows the principles of uncertainty assessment and can apply it to the uncertainty evaluation of a simple measurement system and can interpret the significance of the uncertainty. The student can use and examine critically the properties of different measurement methods and equipment in the measurement of electrical and non-electrical quantities.
