Competencies / Learning Outcomes

Specific skills

  • K24. Identify the basic principles of manufacturing engineering, metrology and quality control.

  • S26. Apply verification and control techniques for mechanical manufacturing processes.

  • S36. Apply quality control to manufacturing systems and processes.

  • C19. Evaluate and implement the necessary actions to correct possible deviations from what has been planned and effectively execute the assigned role within the team.

  • C28. Develop and present work and other activities, incorporating the gender perspective as a variable to be taken into account in the analysis of this reality and in decision-making.

Presentation of the subject

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.

 

The classroom (physical or virtual) is a safe space, free of sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic and discriminatory attitudes, either towards students or towards teachers. We trust that together we can create a safe space where we can make mistakes and learn without having to suffer prejudice from others.

Activities and 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)

There will be an extraordinary exam to make up for the final exam only.

 

Important:

Any form of academic fraud will be sanctioned in accordance with the regulations
evaluation of the center. In the event that signs of fraud are detected, including the improper use
of generative artificial intelligence tools, the subject's teachers will be able to
call the student for an individual interview with the aim of verifying
the authorship.
