B.Sc. in Process Instrumentation & Control

Program Overview

Description

It is developed to equip students with the necessary tools to fulfill their assignments and responsibilities as process instrumentation and control engineers. It consists of courses which can be classified into three main categories as follows: General Sciences, Engineering Sciences and General Education. The undergraduate program includes two laboratory courses, namely Process Instrumentation/Control Lab I and Process Instrumentation/Control Lab II. Students conduct experiments on process variables and properties measurements and empirical chemical processes modeling in Lab I. In Lab II, they conduct experiments on computer based automatic process control; control valves characteristics and composition measurements. The program also includes one period of summer training of two-month duration at the end of the third year. The students are placed in relevant industrial companies to gain additional practical experience. In the second and fourth years, students also undertake junior and senior projects, respectively. Both projects emphasize independent learning and teamwork. Field trips are also arranged through the courses in coordination with the relevant industrial companies.
