MSc in Instrumentation
Course Structure
The MSc course in Instrumentation emphasizes modern developments in measuring instruments and computer based measuring systems, and especially those applied to NDT using ultrasounds. The course consists of eight lecture topics as detailed in the list below, together with an extended project which will be carried out in the NDT-lab and with partnership with industry.
The course is normally full-time. Students willing to register on this course are required to take up an entry exam which will be held in the start of the academic year (October). They must have an engineering degree in electronics or automatic control obtained after five years of studies at university level.
Lectures are given during the first year starting from October. After the examination students work full-time on a long project and submit a dissertation which may take up to a year from the end of this course.
