Technology is getting advance day by day and nowadays all the work is automated. That’s where we roll in, we’re the engineers who know the art and science of measurement and control of process variables within a production or manufacturing area. We’re basically placed in industries where heat,pressure,fluidity,etc plays the role and as I said the advancement in technology has created a lot of job opportunities for engineers throughout the world in various Mnc’s so technically there is a lot of scope for instrumentation engineers.
