Description


The subject is framed within the environment of mechanical engineering.

The first part of the course focuses its scope on the parts of metrology necessary for mechanical engineers to accurately define the shape and characteristics of the parts that make up the mechanisms and manufacturing engineers can verify that the manufactured parts meet the requirements. designer specifications.

The second part addresses the engineers responsible for manufacturing processes and trains them in the tools needed to ensure the quality of manufactured products and to manage the quality of processes and the organization.

Evaluation system


There will be a final exam, continuous assessment tests and practical work.

The grade of the course will be calculated with 0,3 Grade of practical work + 0,7 Maximum (continuous assessment grade, final exam grade)

An extraordinary resit exam for the final exam will be held.
