Knowledge

 Mathematics

Mathematics is the study of topics such as quantity, structure, space, and change. It
involves the identification of patterns and formulating new conjectures based on
them. Mathematicians strive to prove the truth or falsity of these conjectures. There
are many fields of mathematics, some of which are widely used for practical
applications.
 Engineering principles

The engineering elements like functionality, replicability, and costs in relation to the

design and how they are applied in the completion of engineering projects.

 Engineering processes

The systematic approach to the development and maintenance of engineering

systems.

Skills

 Operate precision measuring equipment

Measure the size of a processed part when checking and marking it to check if it is
up to standard by use of two and three dimensional precision measuring equipment
such as a caliper, a micrometer, and a measuring gauge.

 Record test data

Record data which has been identified specifically during preceding tests in order to
verify that outputs of the test produce specific results or to review the reaction of the
subject under exceptional or unusual input.

 Check stability of materials

Measure and control the categorisation and different levels of stability of specific
materials.

 Make numerical calculations

 Work with numbers and perform complex calculations. An understanding of the
basics of maths is crucial.

 Check durability of materials

Measure and control the categorisation and different levels of durability of specific
materials.

 Create a product's virtual model

Create a mathematical or three-dimensional computer graphic model of the product

by using a CAE system or a calculator.

 Run simulations

Run simulations and audits to assess operability of newly implemented setups;

detect errors for improvement.

 Check strength of materials

Measure and control the categorisation and different levels of strength of specific
materials.
