  • The scope of this course includes the study of sensors, technologies and test and measurement equipment. The fundamental concepts of Metrology are also taught, with corresponding practical application, through a strong laboratory component. The need to use Metrology then arises naturally throughout the developed work. Topics of signal analysis in time and frequency are also taught, which allow to understand the characteristics of the quantities to be measured, the difficulties of the process, and measures that can be adopted to mitigate these difficulties. Hence, it allows the student to approach measurement systems in an integrated way.

  • The teaching methodology of this curricular unit considers an approach focused on the exposure and demonstration of content. The aim is to implement a strong dynamic on the part of students in the search for solutions to solve problems, under the guidance of the teacher. Completion of this curricular unit can be accomplished in two ways: continuous assessment or by final exam. The unit's continuous assessment is organized into two frequencies for the T component (50%), with a minimum classification in each frequency of 8 values. The PL component (50%) is assessed through two works with oral presentation, with a minimum grade of 8 points. The minimmum classification on each component (T e PL) is 9,5. The final assessment is expressed on a scale of 0 to 20 values, and the curricular unit will only be considered successfully completed if the weighted value obtained in the CF calculation is equal to or greater than 9.5 values.

  • In continuity with the curricular unit Research I, it will be developed  knowledge in the area of ¿¿collection and management of data, logic and procedure of publication and scientific dissemination, as well as a relevant approach to ethical issues of research per se or its publication and dissemination. In terms of skills and competences it is intended that students develop technical skills in the management of data, scientific writing, the use of media for presentations and develop an attitude in line with the ethical aspects of research. Thus, combined with a training model type scientist practiocioner, this course is also an approach to the further development of skills in scientific production and the ability to constantly search and update the scientific self-training (demand and active and motivated consultation adequate scientific information for professional performance).
