Prerequisites:

Course completion requirements:
Assessment and completion of the course: Credit test and examination
Continuous assessment: Student passes the continuous assessment and receives credits when he or she meets the requirement to obtain at least 21% out of 40%.
A necessary condition for granting the credit is the submission of all correctly prepared reports from laboratory exercises. Student passes the continuous assessment and receives credits when he or she meets the requirement to obtain at least 21% out of 40% for two credit tests and submitted laboratory reports.
Credit tests, laboratory reports
Final assessment: Student passes the final assessment and passes the examination when he or she meets the requirement to obtain at least 31% out of 60%.
Student passes the final assessment and passes the examination when he or she meets the requirement to obtain at least 31% out of 60%.
Overall assessment: Overall assessment is the sum of the assessments obtained by students in the assessment period. The overall result is determined in accordance with the internal regulations of the Technical University in Košice. (Study Regulations, the internal regulation principles of doctoral studies)

Learning outcomes:
This subject provides theoretical basics of physical measurements and skills needed for the processing and evaluation results of measurement. To apply obtained knowledge in particular physical experiments.
