93037 - MISURE PER LA SICUREZZA E PER IL CONTROLLO DEI PROCESSI T

Academic Year 2023/2024

  • Teaching Mode: Traditional lectures
  • Campus: Bologna
  • Corso: First cycle degree programme (L) in Electrical Energy Engineering (cod. 5822)

Learning outcomes

The course provides basic knowledge to students in the context of measures for assessing safety levels in electrical construction sites and in the context of procedures and regulations for quality control in production processes. Both issues are closely related, given that a higher level of safety for operators and infrastructures is associated with a deep knowledge of the topics and procedures relating to quality control in production processes and, on the other hand, a lower residual risk value. At the end of the course, students will have the basic knowledge on the procedures to operate safely in electrical construction sites (through the knowledge acquired for the assessment and reduction of risks) and on the methods and techniques related to quality control in production environments and processes.
