a. Objectives
1. The basic principles & importance of process control in industrial process plants;
2. The required instrumentation and final elements to ensure that well-tuned control is achieved;
3. The use of block diagrams & the mathematical basis for the design of control systems;
4. The knowledge about the design and tuning of process (PID) controllers;
