Course Overview

Curated by IIT Guwahati, the Principles of Mechanical Measurement program is a 12-week course intended mainly for engineering students and professionals. The course falls under the Mechanical engineering category and is an undergraduate-level program. Due to the significance of measurement in engineering, the training is expected to have some level of industry support from any engineering firm or a related industry. 

Measurement and proper interpretation of an engineering task or experiment are of paramount importance. The Principles of Mechanical Measurement training introduces the participants to the fundamentals of measurement through discussions on terminologies and relevant concepts. The course will prepare a mathematical background for the candidates, which will help them understand and analyze the various measurement devices, and there will be a pertinent discussion on digitalization. 

The Principles of Mechanical Measurement certification course is a core course designed to impart a fundamental idea about measurement and its applications right from the basics. The candidates also get the opportunity to qualify for a Swayam e-certificate. However, they must complete all the course lectures and graded assignments and secure the required marks in the internal and end-term examinations.
