Course content
The course "Metrology, Certification, and Standardization" is a compulsory subject designed to cover fundamental theoretical concepts regarding metrology, certification, and standardization within the fields of geodesy and land management. The course is grounded, in particular, in the relevant legislative and legal framework. It also examines the metrological foundations of geodetic measurements. The course consists of two content modules.

Assessment methods and criteria
Final assessment in the form of a pass/fail exam (conducted in a written format): the maximum score is 40 points, and the minimum score required to be added to the semester total is 24 points (60% of the maximum points allocated for the exam). Students who have accumulated a total of fewer than 20 points—the critical threshold—during the semester are not permitted to take the exam. The recommended minimum score for eligibility to take the exam is 38 points.
