Programme Objective

B.Tech in metrology Engineering Course Details Metrology is divided into three basic, overlapping activities:[7][8] Definition of internationally accepted units of measurement Realisation of these units of measurement in practice Traceability, linking measurements made in practice to reference standards Metrology has three basic sub-fields, which use the three basic activities in varying degrees:[7] Scientific or fundamental metrology Applied, technical or industrial metrology Legal metrology In each country, a national measurement system (NMS) exists as a network of laboratories, calibration facilities and accreditation bodies which implement and maintain its metrology infrastructure.[9][10] The NMS affects how measurements are made in a country and their recognition by the international community, which has a wide-ranging impact in its society (including economics, energy, environment, health, manufacturing, industry and consumer confidence).[11][12] The effects of metrology on trade and economy are some of the easiest-observed societal impacts. To facilitate fair trade, there must be an agreed-upon system of measurement.[12]
