- ability to apply modern software for processing and analyzing the measurement results;
- availability of basic knowledge about cyber-physical systems, their operation and metrological specificity.
- ability to provide an adequate technological level of manufacturing the measuring instruments, computing and optimizing their parameter;
- ability to examine the components of electronic devices by computer modeling aiming their improvement;
- ability to assess the metrological characteristics (in error and uncertainty approaches) of results of measuring instruments;
- ability to practice the basic principles of information-measuring complexes and systems.
- ability to apply mathematical theory of organization and planning of the experiment, to develop plans for research, to choose algorithms of measurement data processing, and apply necessary software to automate calculations.
- ability considering specific conditions and chosen plan of study to choose or design the necessary equipment;
- ability of using modern methods and software research to develop working hypotheses, build a theoretical model object of research and justify assumptions;
