Bachelor of Science Honours (B.Sc. Hons.) Instrumentation

Instrumentation is a specialist discipline of engineering and science that primarily deals with the measurement and control of science and technology. The goal of the B.Sc.(Hons) in Instrumentation, the programme is to generate qualified individuals ready to take on challenges in industrial and commercial enterprises. The curriculum is designed in such to help students improve both academic and practical abilities. 

Graduates of the B.Sc. Instrumentation programmes have a solid foundation in the essential knowledge required for the practice of Process Instrumentation and Control Engineering, including scientific concepts, innovative design, and rigorous analysis. Instrumentation course prepares students for a variety of employment options as well as postgraduate studies.

Instrumentation, Industrial Instrumentation, Analytical Instrumentation, Biomedical Instrumentation, Electronics Instrumentation, Microcontrollers and their Applications. Also, Statistical Quality Control is among the subjects covered in the B.Sc. Instrumentation course, to produce graduates who are capable of adapting to technological changes.

The course structure is job and industry-oriented, and graduates can obtain decent employment in industries, manufacturing units, and commercial organisations. B.Sc. Instrumentation graduates in India will have many options, especially with the 'Make in India' buzz accelerating and generating employment prospects. With an appropriate master's degree, students can broaden their work opportunities.

Almost all colleges have the exact qualifying requirements, except for a bit of variance in the minimum required percentage for eligibility for admission to the B.Sc. Instrumentation programme, a candidate must have completed the Senior Secondary School Certificate or Class 12th examination with a minimum requirement of 55 per cent marks in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. Some candidates must have a minimum of 50 per cent or 45 per cent in aggregate. Almost all universities and colleges require English as a language topic.

If the candidates are interested in furthering their education, there are opportunities available. There is a significant opportunity for university recruitment; some industries that may hire include:
