Students are able to navigate quality management systems, use basic terminology in metrology, technical standardization, and statistics, and apply statistical methods when processing measurement results and managing quality. 

A graded credit is awarded on the condition of 100% attendance at laboratory exercises and the completion and successful defense of a term paper on a topic related to the course material.
The instructor evaluates the student’s mastery of the subject matter (the quality of the term paper and its defense) using an ECTS grade. The final grade is determined in accordance with Article 14 of the BUT Study and Examination Regulations according to the following scale: A: 100–90%, B: 89–80%, C: 79–70%, D: 69–60%, E: 59–50%, F: 49–0%.

Attendance at lectures is optional but recommended. Attendance at laboratory exercises is mandatory. In justified cases, missed laboratory sessions may be made up—upon agreement with the instructor—by attending another study group or by completing a make-up laboratory exercise on a date set by the course coordinator.

Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to:

• explain the principles of European and national legislation regarding the conformity assessment of specified products;
