This document outlines an undergraduate course on non-destructive testing and evaluation. The course is divided into 5 units that cover various non-destructive testing methods including surface methods like liquid penetrant and magnetic particle testing, thermography and eddy current testing, ultrasonic testing and acoustic emission, and radiography. The course objectives are to explain fundamental NDT concepts, discuss different non-destructive evaluation methods, and explain specific techniques like thermography, eddy current testing, ultrasonic testing, and radiography. The course totals 45 periods and is expected to help students understand and apply non-destructive testing methods.
