The modules available are: advanced process automation; advanced process control; batch processing and automation; chemical engineering principles; classical control systems design; control schemes and strategies; control systems technology; dynamics and control of distillation columns; fuzzy, neural and expert systems; instrumentation and measurement; management of automation projects; mathematics and Matlab; modelling and simulation; modern and control systems design; optimisation and scheduling; process analytical technology.
Each module consists of one week’s intensive tuition at the University, an assignment equivalent to another week’s work completed over the following two months, and concludes with a written examination. Candidates typically take two to three modules per year.
