Challenges and Opportunities in Modern Measurement Education – Highlights from the Niš, R. Serbia, Round Table
On May 6, 2025, the University of Niš hosted a round table as part of the Erasmus+ PEMS-ML project, focusing on modernizing measurement education. The Round Table was held at the University of Niš, bringing together approximately 40 participants, including academic staff, industry representatives, and students. In collaboration with Ss. Cyril and Methodius University in Skopje, Politecnico di Milano, and other partners, the event explored innovative course content on Industry 5.0, AI-based systems, IoT/IIoT, and Predictive Maintenance.
A fruitful discussion took place at the round table, involving five panelists and active participation from the audience, focusing on the challenges and opportunities in modern measurement science. The panelists and attendees—including academic staff, industry representatives, and students—addressed the topic. Since it was an online event, the audience was also able to ask questions.
Key Themes and Outcomes:
Innovative Curriculum: Presentation of a new course addressing Industry 5.0, Digital Twin, AI-based Measurement Systems, IoT/IIoT, Energy Harvesting, and Sensor Fusion.
Flexible Learning Design: At the basic level, students will choose their preferred teaching formats (e.g., short video clips, in-class lectures), while advanced-level content will be guided by professors with optional topic selections for students.
Diverse Teaching Tools: Proposed formats include:
Simulation-based learning
Game-based activities
Industrial case studies
Short and long multimedia content
Bridging Gap Topics: Supported by a digital platform and existing AI-related content, particularly in Python and LabVIEW integration.
Standardization of Materials: Content will be modular, flexible, and concise (e.g., text-based content limited to 2 pages).
📌 Deliverables in Progress:
Deliverable 2.3: Summary and Conclusions (led by UNI)
Deliverable 2.4: “Ideas for Activity 2.4” – covering content formats, platform use, and educational strategies.
The round table also facilitated a fruitful open discussion and a session on joint research opportunities, setting the stage for continued collaboration.
📅 Next meeting: Online coordination.
All the presentations from the round table in Nis, R. Serbia are available below.

PEMS-ML Project Presented at Sustainable Energy Day at UKIM, FEEIT, Skopje, N. Macedonia
As part of the Sustainable Energy Day celebrations at Ss. Cyril and Methodius University in Skopje, Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technologies, on April 28, 2025, the PEMS-ML project was proudly presented. The event attracted a large number of participants, including high school students, university professors, and staff, all showing strong interest in modern technologies and the future of electrical engineering education.
Mare Srbinovska gave a detailed presentation about the PEMS-ML project, highlighting its goals, activities, and its role in advancing measurement technologies within the framework of Industry 4.0.
PEMS-ML and Industry 4.0 Innovations Presented to Future Engineers at Politecnico di Milano, Italy
The PEMS-ML project was presented during the Politecnico di Milano's open day on March 29, 2025. High school students showed strong interest in the core subjects of the Electrical Engineering degree program, particularly those related to the PEMS-ML project. During the event, a digital twin demonstrator, based on measurement technologies within the framework of Industry 4.0, was presented. It will be used in a new course to be launched based on the outcomes of the project.
The kickoff meeting for the PEMS-ML project took place in Skopje, North Macedonia from December 5 to 6, 2024.
The first kick-off meeting for the project "Personalized Education in Measurement Science and Technology Empowered by Machine Learning" (PEMS-ML) took place on December 5–6, 2024, at the FabLab Faculty laboratory and the Center for Technology Transfer and Innovation, both part of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technologies (FEEIT) at the "Ss. Cyril and Methodius" University in Skopje. During the meeting, participants established the project's foundational guidelines, outlined roles and responsibilities, and presented the two-year implementation timeline. Discussions focused on planned activities and project objectives, highlighting the significance of collaboration and effective communication throughout the implementation process.
PEMS-ML is a project led by the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technologies (FEEIT) at "Ss. Cyril and Methodius" University in Skopje under the KA220-HED – Cooperation Partnerships in Higher Education program. With a duration of two years and a total budget of 120,000 euros, the project is co-financed by the Erasmus+ program of the European Union and officially commenced on November 1, 2024. In addition to FEIT as the lead partner, the project involves collaboration with Politecnico di Milano (Polimi) and the Faculty of Electronics at the University of Niš (UNI). The representatives from the Department of Electronics, Information, and Bioengineering at the Politecnico di Milano were Marco Faifer (Team Coordinator), Loredana Cristaldi, and Christian Laurano. From the Faculty of Electronics Engineering at the University of Nis, the attendees included Milan Dinčić (Team Coordinator), Dragan Denić, Jelena Jovanović, and Milica Stojanović. From the leading organization (UKIM) representatives of the team were: Mare Srbinovska (Team Coordinator), Vladimir Dimchev, Zhivko Kokolanski and Kiril Demerdziev.
The project aims to develop an innovative approach to personalized learning in higher education, specifically within the field of measurement technology. This concept aligns with the principles of Education 5.0, which emphasize placing the student and their individual characteristics at the center of the educational process. Expected outcomes include the creation of interactive multimedia materials and the development of software platforms designed to support personalized learning experiences.
The two-day agenda began with an introductory meeting led by the Dean, Prof. Dr. Vladimir Atanasovski, who extended his best wishes for the successful and efficient implementation of the project. The discussion centered on introducing innovative approaches to personalized education in measurement science and technology and exploring new techniques to enhance students' mastery of the learning material.
Following this, the meeting proceeded with presentations from each partner institution, highlighting the courses covered under the project. Participants focused on establishing unified templates for project promotion, including the development of a single project logo alongside the logos of all participating universities.
As part of Work Package 2, discussions focused on analyzing the need for personalized learning and reviewing existing courses. This included defining innovative course content and developing teaching methodologies aligned with the personalized learning approach.
Under Work Package 4, participants addressed strategies for project dissemination, including the creation of promotional materials such as brochures and flyers to enhance project visibility. Additionally, it was proposed to present project activities at various conferences to further promote its objectives and outcomes.
