About this field

PLC and SCADA are two of the most in-demand skills in Indian manufacturing. A PLC programmer writes the logic that makes machines run; a SCADA engineer builds the screens and data systems that let operators monitor and control entire plants. This programme covers both in depth — from relay logic and ladder diagrams to multi-screen SCADA architectures with historian integration.
