Abstract :
An undergraduate course on instrumentation systems in some form is regarded as an essential element of study for all electronic engineering students. However a balance must be drawn between the diversity of sensors that are presented and the diversity of electronic signal processing techniques included so that a strong link with other courses is maintained. This paper examines the development of the course currently taught to York electronics students in their second year of study. The syllabus, its teaching and assessment are discussed
