Course Learning Outcomes* At the end of this course, students are able to:

1) Examine the basics of measurement methods and analyze signals with
respect to their static and dynamic traits and determine mathematical
model for measurement system.

2) Judge variations in engineering measurements by estimating random
error, accuracy, and uncertainty using statistical methods.
3) Measure physical displacement in engineering components and justify
the selection of sensors for linear or rotary motion and engineering vari-
ables such as force, torque and power.
4) Measure temperature, pressure, and velocity in engineering systems
where the measurement of temperature provides the basis for a variety
of control and safety systems.

Transferable Skills None
