Question: Respected Sir,
I want to know about career in Industrial Automation. Its scope, initial remuneration etc.
 
Answer: Every industry is switching to automation for its routine operations. Automation not only leads to increased production but also to improved quality automation. It is being adapted in almost every field such as schools, hostels, hotels etc. Home automation is also widely being adapted these days. Automatic functioning of fans, lights, taps etc are all examples of the use of automation technology.

There is a critical shortage of automation, instrumentation and control engineers around the world now due to retirement, restructuring and rapid growth in new industries and technologies. Many industrial automation businesses throughout the world comment on the difficulty in finding experienced automation engineers despite paying outstanding salaries. The actual pay package differs from industry to industry.

All the best
