Reliability is determining how consistentthe survey is over time. In addition, the level of correlation survey items have with each oneanother will be investigated. If a survey is unreliable, survey statistics will move up and downwithout respondent opinions really changing. What may look like a significant change may bedue to the unreliability of the survey method.

Typically, the student goes through the usuallaboratory exercises with the approach that there is no need for mastery of the instrumentation.The term paper provides a setting to change this; to be able to successfully implement the termproject, the student would need to correctly operate the equipment and instruments.

Course objectivesinclude the introduction of modern data acquisition systems and techniques, the development andpresentation of statistical techniques for data analysis, and the introduction of formal uncertaintyanalysis. These three course topics are employed in nearly every rigorous engineering experimentthat a student would perform in either an industrial setting or during advanced graduate research.However, most laboratory experiments are ‘canned’ and handed to the student with a detailedprocedure
