摘要

As more graduates in chemical engineering are faced with industrial assignments that demand a thorough understanding of modern control techniques, it is imperative that process control courses are adapted so as to prepare graduates for these assignments.  With this goal in mind, a HP-VEE networked control environment, equipped with 26 control experiments, has been developed for use in the process control laboratory.  With an emphasis on project-based learning, students are equipped with valuable experience to handle physical systems and apply theoretical concepts to real processes.
