Control & Instrumentation Engineering Department
The Automation & Control option was first introduced as part of the System Engineering Program in 1984. It underwent several revisions and in 2009, it was developed into a full program called Control & Instrumentation System Engineering. Finally, in July 2021, the Control & Instrumentation Engineering Department was established. The department offers BS program in Control and Instrumentation Engineering and MS and PhD programs in System Control Engineering. The offered programs meet international standards in terms of level and contents. We encourage ambitious undergraduate and postgraduate students to join us.
