Instrumentation and Process Control

This document outlines the contents of a 6-month course on instrumentation and process control. The course aims to provide engineers hands-on experience with real-life software and virtual instruments without large investments. It covers various topics in control theory, process control, measurement and analysis, and instrumentation. Students will learn about controllers, modeling, feedback and more. The course utilizes open-source lab software and virtual instruments that simulate actual devices to allow practice. Hands-on training is also provided at physical labs.
