Australasian-based Metrology
Education Initiative in Partnership with
the MSA
We started discussion on a metrology education initiative during
the I2MTC 2019 in Auckland (Fig. 2) where there were
members from the MSA also in attendance. The key idea was
to link the science of measurement to existing or new programs
to encourage the awareness of metrology. Although there are
considerable online resources, uptake has been poor. Therefore,
the strategy we had was to partner with mainstream
education providers (universities and technical institutes)
to streamline the education initiative. The main components
of the partnership are illustrated in Fig. 3. To date, 12
Measurement Technical Lectures have been contributed by
the Metrology Society of Australasia, 12 Sensors Practical Lectures
were contributed from the partner institution and these
components have been brought together via mini projects on
instrumentation and smart instruments. A pilot is currently
underway in the University of Waikato New Zealand.
This committee is currently chaired by Ye Chow Kuang
(kuang.ye.chow@ieee.org). The Chair is assisted by AsiaAustralasia
coordinator Melanie Ooi (melanie.ooi@waikato.
ac.nz) and Europe-Africa-America coordinator Lorenzo Ciani
(lorenzo.ciani@unifi.it). More details can be found on the TC
web site: http://tc32.ieee-ims.org/tc32. Help, suggestions,
and proposals are all welcome.
Ye Chow Kuang (kuang.ye.chow@
ieee.org) currently leads an Electrical
and Electronics Engineering
program at the University of
Waikato, Hamilton, New Zealand.
Dr. Kuang is interested in the application
of quality data analytics in
automation and fault diagnosis. He
earned his B.Eng. and Ph.D. degrees
from the University of Southampton,
UK.

Lorenzo Ciani (Senior Member,
IEEE, lorenzo.ciani@unifi.it) is an
Associate Professor with the Department
of Information Engineering
at the University of Florence, Italy.
His current research interests
include system reliability, availability,
maintainability, fault detection,
and electrical and electronic instrumentation
and measurement.
He received the Ph.D. degree in industrial
and reliability engineering
from the University of Florence, Italy
in 2009.
Melanie Ooi (Senior Member, IEEE,
melanie.ooi@waikato.ac.nz) is an
Associate Professor of mechatronics
at the University of Waikato,
New Zealand and Adjunct Professor
of computer science at Sunway
University, Malaysia. She serves
on the IEEE Public Visibility Committee,
the IEEE Technical Program
Integrity Subcommittee, and on the
Administrative Committee for the
Instrumentation and Measurement
Society.
