MECHANICAL ENGINEERING (19) MECHANICAL MEASUREMENT & METROLOGY

SUBJECT CODE: 2141901

B.E. 4th SEMESTER

Type of course: Under Graduate level

Prerequisite: Nil

Rationale:

Measurement and Metrology deals with the application of science in Mechanical Engineering. It

provides a means of assessing the suitability of measuring instruments, their calibration, and the

quality control of manufactured products. A product that is not manufactured according to

metrological specifications will have to incur heavy costs of comply with the specifications later.

Any compromise in quality creates rapid negative sentiments in the market and cost of recovering

the original market position would be quite high. Hence, an organization should strive towards a

ZERO – DEFECT regime in order to survive in a highly competitive market, ensuring this aspect

of manufacturing is the responsibility of a quality control engineer, who must be completely

familiar with measurements and metrology and also their limitations.

By educating in the area of Measurement and Metrology students will enable to seek employment

in engineering upon graduation while, at the same time, provide a firm foundation for the pursuit

of graduate studies in engineering.
