We worked with industry professionals to develop an MSc Applied Instrument and Control programme that is accredited by the Institute of Measurement and Control (InstMC). It covers both the latest developments in the field and the industry knowledge we've gained through years of experience. The programme draws on relevant case studies with real-world implications, so you'll gain practical knowledge that you can apply on the job from day one. The programme also fulfils the Engineering Council's further learning requirements for registration as a Chartered Engineer. Gain a solid foundation in measurement science and control theory Practise data acquisition and instrument networking Study analysis of systems for condition monitoring Investigate fault detection and control system design Graduate prospects The MSc Applied Instrumentation and Control offers graduates a highly focused skillset that's valuable to an extremely wide range of industries - any business that benefits from the measurement of process variables and environmental factors. For instance, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, optics and optoelectronics, medical instrumentation and more. Across these industries, you might focus on computer-controlled instrumentation systems, process instrumentation, technical management and sales, process control and automation, sensor development and manufacturing, instrument networking, industrial development or test and measurement systems. You might also pursue a career with a company that designs and manufactures measurement systems. What you will study The curriculum has been developed in consultation with industry and can be broadly grouped in three areas: the introduction of new facts and concepts in measurement and control; the application of facts and concepts to real measurement problems and systems; and subjects which are of general importance to the professional engineer, for example safety and safety management and management ethics and project planning. Students complete eight taught modules - four in trimester A and four in trimester B; and a Masters project in trimester C.
