Process Instrumentation
Duration: 3 Months
This course teaches students how industries monitor and control parameters like pressure, temperature, flow, and level using precision instruments. You’ll work with real-world sensors, transmitters, controllers, and calibrators. Ideal for process industries like oil & gas, pharmaceuticals, and chemical manufacturing, this course combines deep technical knowledge with practical handling of devices.
