INSTRUMENTATION ENGINEERING
Instrumentation is defined as the art and science of measurement and control of process variables within a production, or manufacturing area.
� Today we find Instruments everywhere at home & atwork place, and this was possible only because of thescience of instrumentation.
� It is a multi-disciplinary stream that covers subjectsfrom various branches such as chemical, mechanical,electrical, electronics and computers
� Instrumentation engineering is a specialized branch ofelectrical and electronic engineering and it deals withmeasurement, control and automation of processes.
