Program Description

The Online Measurement Technology for Automation Engineering Program provides technical professionals with specialized skills to capture, evaluate, and interpret reliable data in modern automated environments. Designed for quality managers, test equipment specialists, maintenance technicians, development engineers, and career switchers in Industry 4.0, the curriculum bridges the gap between physical sensor data and automated process control. Participants develop the capability to optimize production workflows and uphold rigorous manufacturing standards.

The curriculum covers the core principles of electrical measurement technology, including the accurate quantification of voltage, current, and resistance through bridges and amplifiers. Learners explore diverse sensor principles for monitoring temperature, pressure, force, and acceleration, while mastering error calculation, uncertainty assessment, and calibration standards. In addition, the coursework introduces computer-based measurement technology, covering digital data acquisition, system interfaces, and software-driven result evaluation for industrial applications.

Delivered through a flexible digital learning platform, this program allows participants to study at their own pace without scheduled attendance requirements. Students receive access to digital study materials, an extensive online library, and professional tools including MATLAB and Microsoft Office 365. Academic achievements in this course award 5 ECTS credits, which can be applied toward the Bachelor of Engineering in Industrial Engineering Industry 4.0 degree.
