Abstract:
The academisation process of the engineering degrees in ISTA (Kinshasa, DR Congo), is reported. The focus is laid to the training of skills of the students in defining the new curricula in the domain of ICT and electrical engineering, that stem from practical laboratory work sessions, where the students design and develop relatively complex circuits with low cost off the shelf equipment. Emphasis will be laid to the conceived measurement set-ups and the relation to metrology.
Keywords:
