Studying at the chair of measurement and sensor system techniques
The Chair MST is responsible for basic education in metrology and sensor technology during the 4th, 5th and 6th semester. As core subject for studies in electronics and mechatronics, modern applications are presented and fundamentals in analog and digital metrology are taught.
Study
The student training at the MST is an interdisciplinary field and is aimed at students of electrical engineering, mechatronics, physics, information systems engineering, biology, medicine and engineering. In extensive lectures, the general principles of measuring systems technology to the special properties of laser optical systems are taught. Special emphasis is placed on systemic foundations and the connection between theory and practice. Optical fiber sensors, mechatronic laser sensors, flow and surface metrology, measuring theory, intelligent sensor systems, digital adaptive laser systems, simulation and modeling, digital holography and 4D image processing are some of the advanced subjects offered. In seminars employees and students of the chair as well as external speakers are reporting on current research activities. Internships for electric, acoustic and optical metrology complete the teaching program. The MST has modern laser, ultrasonic and electronic laboratories. Its extensive facilities include digital signal processing systems, high-speed cameras, frequency-modulated solid-state lasers and adaptive optical components such as deformable mirrors, MEMS-based micro-mirror arrays and liquid crystal modulators. Research and teaching have a high degree of interdisciplinarity, but due to special strategy of the MST common methods can be used for the system realization and application.
