Potential and future scope:

The Instrumentation Technology graduates get employment opportunities in both hardware & software industries The options being Engineering design, Simulation, Development, Fabrication, Testing, Quality Control, & Marketing In Industries Like Industrial Automation , Home Automation , Nuclear Power Stations, Aircraft Instrumentation & Controls, Refineries, Petrochemical, Chemical, & Food Industries, Cement, Textile, Paper industries, Pharmaceutical, Engineering , Electrical &electronic, Biomedical , Thermal power station, & Automobile Industries, Fertilizer industries, Wood processing, Mining, etc. Our students are mostly placed in almost all premier software companies Locally & Globally through our Placement Centre.            

The Instrumentation Technology, being an inter-disciplinary branch of engineering, is heading towards development of new & intelligent sensors, smart transducers, MEMS Technology, Blue tooth Technology. The automation systems in the production are rapidly being enhanced and the demand for highly skilled instrumentation engineers is on the rise. In the instrumentation systems manufacturing sector, the demand for well trained process control engineering graduates is always present. This BE (IT) course provides Instrumentation students with sound theoretical & practical training in the operation and design of electronic instruments, digital logic systems, and computer based automatic process control & instrumentation, & automatic control system design, etc. To meet the industrial requirements of future, students are also made to become well versed with personal computer applications in Instrumentation, Process Control Systems Design, PLCs, DSP Architecture & Design, Microprocessors and Microcontroller System Design & Experimentation, Industrial Electronics & Applications.
