Author: DR.N.V. Srinivasa Rao Post Date: 26 Apr 2023 Industrial Automation is a hot topic these days. Many manufacturing and service industries want to reduce their dependence on the workforce and try to make their operation automatic with the help of various electrical and electronic devices. In some industries, robots work in positions where a person was working. If a work is to be done repeatedly many times, instead of using a human being the industries are trying to use robots. So there is a heavy demand for automation engineers.
Many companies send their executives for training and certification in this subject and use them for introducing automation in their organisation. I know some engineers who went to some institutes and did certification courses and diploma courses which boosted their careers.
There are many institutes offering various short-term automation courses for fresh students as well as working professionals.
IPCS Global is one such very famous institute giving training and certifying people to work for industrial automation jobs. I understand, this is India's No:1 Institute in Automation Training & Placements. This institute won the Best Training Institute from Silicon India. The faculty here are well qualified and they are from industry backgrounds. One of my best friends worked in this institute as faculty for some time. The institute is certified by TUV – Rheinland Germany. Their labs are well equipped I understand. More importance will be given to practical work for the students.
This institute offers the following programmes. 1. Automation System Engineer 2. Professional Diploma in Industrial Automation 3. Advanced Automation System Professional-6 PLC 4. Advanced Automation System Professional-4 PLC 5. Advanced PLC Program Professional 6. DCS Engineering & Maintenance 7. Electrical Control & Panel Designing 8. Customize Programming PLC SCADA 9. FD Installation Professional 10. Industrial Networking

It involves automating industrial processes using tools like robotics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning. One might enrol in a degree curriculum or a certificate programme in industrial automation to pursue a career in the industry. Institution to institution may have different admissions policies for programmes in industrial automation. Generally speaking, a high school diploma or an equivalent certification is required to apply for a degree study. An online application form, academic transcripts, and other supporting documentation may need to be sent as part of the admissions process. For a diploma course, the eligibility criteria may vary, but generally, applicants need to have completed their high school education. The admission process may involve submitting an application form, along with academic transcripts and other supporting documents.
Aside from the more conventional academic programs, several institutions now provide industrial automation certification courses that working professionals can enrol in. It may be necessary to submit an application, pay the course fees, and meet certain eligibility requirements in order to be admitted to these programmes.
Author: Umesh Post Date: 09 Apr 2023 Industrial automation courses are closely related to electronics and instrumentation courses. It is in a way offshoot or subsidiary of those streams. This line of learning deals with designing, programming, testing, and maintenance of automated machines and equipments which are being used today in the various industries in a big way. A good job potential exists in this area for the qualified industrial automation persons. The main course for making a good career in industrial automation area is B.Tech in industrial automation which is a 4 years engineering course.
After completing ones 10 + 2 with at least 45% marks one can appear in joint engineering exam like JEE or any other such exam being conducted by any university and compete it successfully for getting admission in industrial automation branch in one of the colleges where it is available.
Those candidates who have completed a diploma in Electronics Engineering or Electronics or Telecommunication Engineering or any similar branch can also apply for B.Tech in industrial automation course through the lateral entry program
NIELIT, Calicut has announced admissions into industrial automation training programs - PG Diploma in Industrial Automation System Design and Advanced Diploma - PLC/SCADA/DCS Engineer courses. For application details go through this article.
