Students are introduced to industrial processes and programmable logic controllers. They learn to apply programmable logic controllers to process control. The development of ladder-logic diagram in the design of an industrial-control system using programmable logic controllers is required, and introduction to engineering design projects, which are assigned by the instructor, and/or group initiated projects. Students will work in teams. Hardware implementations of PLC projects are expected. Formal report and oral presentation of projects are required. This course will serve as one of the senior capstone electronic engineering technology design courses in the curriculum.
