Details of Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech.) in Electronics & Instrumentation Engineering

Electronics and instrumentation engineering is the specialized section of electrical and electronics engineering. It primarily focuses on the operations and principles of measuring instruments used in designing and configuring automated systems. The technology of instrumentation does help in creating, constructing, and maintaining the measuring, and controlling the systems and devices that are found in research institutions and manufacturing plants. Therefore, B.Tech and M.Tech degrees in applied electronics, electronics, and instrumentation engineering can find jobs in these areas. Public sector companies like Bharat electronics Ltd., instrumentation Ltd., and Bharat Heavy Electrical Ltd. Does provide some opportunities for jobs. Instrumentation engineering is the base of robotics and mechatronics engineering. Here the primary objective is to make sure that processes and systems operate efficiently and safely. This is a multi-disciplinary stream that does cover subjects from many branches like computers, mechanical, chemical, electronics, and electrical. The main focus of this branch of B.Tech is on the principles of operation of measuring the instruments that are used in automated systems.
