Overview
One day Open Course focused on the introduction of measurement uncertainty, data manipulation, standards and task specific budgets. It will be held on Wednesday 10th November at Coventry University’s Institute for Advanced Manufacturing and Engineering (AME). Candidate numbers are limited so that students receive appropriate time on engagement with the teaching team. The course is delivered through a variety of blended learning including lectures and activity sessions.
A two-day course covering the scoping, calculation and application of industrial related measurement uncertainty.
If you are involved in calibration, planning a new measuring process, buying new equipment, looking to move to a new site or considering introducing other change to the process, then measurement uncertainty will contribute greatly to improve that decision-making process prior to change and help mitigate the inevitable problems and workarounds that then occur. Examples will be given and interpretation and common practice covered both in applying uncertainty budgets and what next.
Course detail
The course is designed to introduce the candidate to measurement uncertainty, including :
- Expression of uncertainty
