If you’re interested in how things work and how to make them work better, Instrumentation and Control Systems Engineering Technology (ICET) might be the perfect major for you. In today’s highly automated world, industries rely on smart systems to run everything from manufacturing lines and power grids to robotics and biomedical devices. The ICET program at Louisiana Tech prepares you to design, maintain, and improve those systems with hands-on training and real-world applications.
As an ICET student, you’ll gain valuable experience working with sensors, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), robotics, calibration tools, and electrical power systems. You’ll learn how to troubleshoot complex processes, program microcontrollers, and understand both discrete and analog control systems. You’ll also develop skills in data acquisition, transfer, and industrial networking, skills that are in high demand across nearly every engineering field.
This program is ideal for students who enjoy problem-solving, technology, and working with both hardware and software. ICET graduates go on to make meaningful contributions in biomedical, chemical, civil, cyber, electrical, industrial, mechanical, and nanosystems industries. If you want to build a future at the heart of innovation and automation, ICET gives you the tools to lead in a fast-changing world.
