Instrumentation engineering is a specialised branch of electrical and electronic engineering and it deals with measurement, control and automation of processes. Apart from covering core subjects such as industrial, instrumentation and process control, bio-medical, instrumentation and robotics, the students deal Many students from this stream go to good universities abroad to pursue MS/PhD in their desired fields of interest, every year. There are seats in the IITs and IISC too, where it is relatively more difficult to get in, because of the fierce competition. Jobs prospects: PSUs recruit through GATE. One can appear for GATE in'Instrumentation'paper and make himself eligible to apply for PSUs like NTPC, IOCL, BPCL, GAIL, ONGC, etc I have seen my seniors getting placed in electronics companies like Texas Instruments, Cadence Design systems and giving a good competition to the ECE guys . There are also companies, which come looking for Instrumentation engineers in particular, like Foster-Wheeler, CAIRN India, LINDE, etc. Moreover during Campus placements E & I guys are generally allowed to sit in almost every type of company that are coming for recruitment : From Coding to Consultancy, Financial services to Decision Sciences.
