Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

Student writes a short report on an agreed topic related to the application of NDT methods within the topic of his dissertation. Knowledge shall be audited by an oral examination, focusing on the knowledge of the methods of NDT with a focus on applications related to the theme of the dissertation. The standard evaluation procedures are used according to the ECTS.
In response to the number of students is teaching realized in the form of regular consultations.

Aims

The objective is to provide theoretical and practical knowledge of the basic methods of non-destructive evaluation of materials, operation diagnostics their importance to quality management..
Students will master the methods of non-destructive evaluation of materials at the level of qualification grades I and basic of workers in the area of NDE.
