General description | The growing complexity of industrial processes makes the measurement of the magnitudes involved progressively more critical. It is necessary to guarantee the accuracy and traceability of the instrumentation used, define the most appropriate instrumentation and define the process of the signals obtained. The instrumental engineer acquires, in this context, increasing importance. This subject covers, in four sections, the legal framework and organizational structure of national and international metrology, the calibration of instruments and their traceability, transducers and sensors in electrical and dimensional metrology, signal conditioning and visualization and presentation of information techniques. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Other comments and second call | |||
The attitude and collaboration of the students for the best development of teaching and learning of the subject are values considered very important. Incorrect behavior in the classrooms, improper use and deterioration of equipment and resources, obstructions to the normal development of teaching activities and lack of respect towards classmates and professors are penalized in the final grade of the subject with a reduction that may reach up to one point for each wake-up call. For the 2nd call, the requirements to pass the subject are maintained, and with the same weighting. The evaluation criteria are indicative. Professors may find specific situations that justify readjusting the percentages shown. EVALUATION TESTS During the evaluation tests, it will not be possible to use any material or device that has not been expressly authorized by the professor. If any irregularity occurs during the corresponding exam or evaluation test, the exam will be immediately withdrawn, the student will be expelled and graded as a fail. In any case, the provisions of the internal regulations of the ULE included in the document "Guidelines for action in cases of plagiarism, copying or fraud in exams or evaluation tests" will be followed (Approved Permanent Commission of the Government Council 01/29 /2015). |
