Instrumentation Techniques and Measurement Methods

Description

In this survey class, we will review a cross section of instrumentation techniques, measurement systems and methods, and sensor applications. How do we apply sensors, and what do we measure? What instrumentation can I use? What is most commonly used and what is readily available? What can I use in my test and development process? This course is intended to familiarize the student with various instrumentation techniques available today and offers technicians and engineers the opportunity to receive a broad brush introduction to sensors and measurements.
