Message from the HOD

Dr. S. Srinivasan

PROFESSOR

          The Department of Instrumentation Engineering was established in the year 1949. The core strength of the Instrumentation Engineering Department MIT Campus, Anna University is Process Control & Instrumentation. The Department had received generous funding support from DST-FIST, DST-PURSE, UGC-UPE, UGC-SAP-DRS-I, and TEQIP to establish state-of-the-art Research Laboratories. The UG programme offered by the Department has been accredited by NBA for 6 years. The Department shall strive towards becoming trend setter and a facilitator in Electronics, Instrumentation and Control Engineering for higher learning, Research and Consultancy.
