Career Option in Instrumentation Engineering

The branch of science that deals with measurement and control is called instrumentation. It deals with devices that measure or manipulate variables such as flow, temperature, level, pressure,density, viscosity etc. These devices could be as simple as valves and transmitters, and as complex as analyzers, and often consist of control systems of varied processes. The control of processes is one of the main branches of applied instrumentation and is widely in demand in all types of production business.
