COURSE NAME : ENGINEERING MEASUREMENTS - II

1. RATIONALE :
Work in an industry is characterized by certain specific features which in turn makes certain
demands on the technician. First of all, he must be able to accurately measure physical quantities
using appropriate measuring equipment. He must perform all experiments and related operations
accurately in strict accordance with the relevant manual, standards or text books. Particular
care must be taken to use these apparatus/instruments carefully.
This course on Engineering Measurement intends to develop elementary measurement skills
in the students. It is an interdisciplinary course emphasizing the development of personal
attributes like spirit of enquiry, problem solving etc. Some elementary skills in error analysis,
safety precautions and interpretation of results are to be developed through this course.
