Program Details

The Graduate Certificate in Industrial Instrumentation and Process Control covers knowledge and skills underpinning the principles of unit operations, unit processes, fluid transport, and control required to apply these principles to Industrial control and instrumentation systems and make the systems efficient through Engineering solutions.

The learning outcomes of the course is designed to equip students with professional engineering skills and knowledge to model solutions to address the issues in automating industrial operations, design the system in an efficient manner through application of these concepts, communicate the solutions effectively and develop the problem-solving skills essential to good engineering practice.

You must complete 12 credit points comprising four core units. There are no electives in this program. The program duration is six months across two terms, and you will study two units per term. For further study, graduates may consider EIT’s Master of Engineering (Industrial Automation).

Unit Code	Subjects	Credit Points
ME503	Industrial Process Control Systems	3
ME504	Industrial Instrumentation	3
MME505	Process Engineering	3
ME603	Advanced Process Control	3

As a graduate, you will be able to undertake projects in Control and Instrumentation, Process Control, Control Systems, and Industrial Instrumentation Systems.

Hear from our students

The delivery methodology and the information available in the e-library can’t be beaten. The other important aspect of online education is recorded lectures. You can review the tutorial and lessons on repeat when you need to understand the concept.

M Masemola, South Africa

What I liked most about the course and EIT is the flexibility is offered regarding education. It gave me the opportunity to study and work full-time.

C Groenewald, South Africa

I enjoyed interacting with students all around the world, and seeing how the principles I have learned applies to them as well.

S Zeelie, South Africa

My line of work requires me travel quite often. I could not attend every class due to my remote locations, but still I could recap and stay on top of the study material thanks to the recordings. Also, all the Instructors were world class.
