The goal | Provide students with the ability to work independently in a laboratory Provide the students with the ability to operate electrical and electronic instrumentation and perform measurements. Provide the students with the ability to estimate the measurement uncertainty. Provide the students with the ability to compose their own measurements systems according to the measurement requirements. | |||
The outcome | Students will be trained for independent work in a lab, to use instrumentation, to measure and to estimate the measurement uncertainty. Students will be trained to choose adequate measurement methods. Students will be capable to design instruments with extended measurement range. Students will be trained to use oscilloscope. | |||
