  1. AppliedMeasurementScience Sergei Jurtšenkosergeij8@gmail.com Master’s Programme http://www.ut.ee/ams

  2. Measurements? • To be undestood in the brodest senice: • Toxic metals in drinking water • Choloseterol level in blood • Strength on construction materials • Octane number of gasoline • ...

  3. Importance of Measurements? • Importance of measurements is enormous: • Critical decisions (economical, social, medical) are based on results of measurements • 40% of the EU directives involve measurements http://www.ut.ee/ams

  4. Key to success: Education • There is a huge need for educated workers and managers in laboratories! • This is why the AMS programme was launched

  5. Learning outcomes • The broader aim of the curriculum is to qualify specialists for working on the areas where competence in measurements, metrology and quality systems is required. http://www.ut.ee/ams

  6. From which countries the students come? • 38% Estonia • 62% foreign(Ukraine, China, Great Britain, Romania, Turkey, Latvia, Uzbekistan, Uganda, Jordan, Kasakhstan, Chroatia, Albania, Lithuania) http://www.ut.ee/ams

  7. 2012: China, Latvia, Nepal, Albania, Estonia, Ghana

  8. Outline • Interdisciplinary3+2 master's degree programme • Cross-sectorial • Physical measurements • Chemical measurements (analyses) • Metrology • Quality systems • Economic and legalaspects of measurements • 120 ECTS • Tuition in English The education that you will get is of very broad applicability

  9. Knowledge and skills • Measurement and analysis methods • Physical and chemical basis • Factors affecting the results • Calculation methods • Knowledge necessary for assessment of quality of results • Economic and legal aspects, quality systems

  10. Obligatory Module (45 ECTS) Courses: Measuring and Instrumentation, Measurement Data Processing, Lab of Physical Measurements, Practical Chemical Analysis Methods, Lab of Chemical Analysis Methods, Fundamentals of Metrology, Metrology in Chemistry, Seminar in Measurement Science, Quality Systems Program structure Elective Module (30 ECTS, courses can be chosen from the list) Possible courses: Materials Characterization and Testing, Structural Analysis, Measurements in Biochemistry, Measurements and the Law, Economic Aspects of Measurements, Signal Processing, Chemometrics, Environment and Measurement, Electrochemical Measurement and Analysis Methods, Nanometrology, etc Optional Subjects(6 ECTS, any courses can be chosen university-wide, e.g. languages) Practical Speciality Training(9 ECTS, internship placement in industry or analysis or calibration laboratories) Master’s thesis(30 ECTS, reasearch project with a topic related to measurement science) https://www.is.ut.ee/pls/ois_sso/tere.tulemast

  11. Master’s thesis • This is a serious scientific research project. • It is very importantto begin Master`s thesis work as soon as possibleat the beginning of study. • You should not expect that you will be able to complete it with one semester. • The best advisor for you is your Master`s thesis supervisor. • The information about research groups at the Seminars in Measurement Science (starting from September 5) .
