MSc in Instrumentation & Control

 

The MSc (Master of Science) course in Instrumentation & Control Engineering, suits personnel from all types of industrial plants, power stations, production facilities, factories, etc,. and normally takes, on average, two to three years.

The MSc course consists of 8 modules plus the project, delivered through intensive, up-to-date, high level, short courses supported by lectures, tutorials, assignments and laboratory exercises.

ENG**** Measurement Theory and Devices
ENG**** Data Acquisition and Analysis
ENG**** Control Systems
ENG**** Instrument Communication and Networking
ENG**** Safety and Safety Management
ENG**** Project Planning and Management
ENG**** Environmental measurement Case Studies
ENG**** Industrial Case Studies
ENG**** Project

These short courses are delivered in blocks (Distance Block Format) of one week duration at a Scottish University and 4/8 blocks run per year.

It is envisioned that a student takes at least 4 modules per year. However, due to work/home committments if a student cannot attend one of the blocks, he/she will pick the module up at a later date.

The project will, in most cases be industrial based and this is where companies paying a students fee should get a return on a worthwhile, useful, beneficial exercise.

A student who completes only 4 modules may elect to recieve a PgC (Post-graduate Certificate) in Instrumentation & Control and a student who completes all 8 modules (no project) may elect to recieve a PgD (Post-graduate Diploma) in Instrumentation & Control.

Entry to the MSc programme is based on an honours degree or equivalent in an appropriate subject. The cost of each module is approximately £450.00 sterling (UK residents). Overseas students may request cost details on application.

As an added service to all prospective students who wish to study for their Masters degree, A-1 Technical Training, Logis-Tech Associates undertakes to provide additional tutoring, if required, for a small minimal fee. On most occasions, at this high level, students requesting assistance are only seeking direction/clarification of some subject matter, and no fee will be attached.

The next in-take is for September 2006 - numbers are limited. For more details on the MSc in Instrumentation & Control, please complete the request for information form.
