APCWorld Group is located in Houston, Texas, USA. The group consists of process control engineers, software developers, academic professors, administrators, trainers and people with journalistic skills. The group's presence encompasses several countries with people of diverse origin, skills and experience. The mission of the group is to promote growth and dissemination of process control and advanced process control technology, help process control engineers, technicians and students find work, jobs and generate new ideas for improved technology, stable control and to maximize profits in the manufacturing environment. APCWorld group sees an outstanding opportunity that can arise out of maximizing the synergy from practicing engineers, students, professors and retirees.

APCWorld allows students to post their resumes easily and quickly. These students could get short term summer jobs as well as full blown permanent jobs after their course work is complete. There are many companies where a variety of technical problems need to be solved. But in today's modern day environment, skilled technical staff is either very busy or skilled engineers just may be unavailable. In this situation, corporate engineers and managers can search APCWorld website and look for students who may have the skills to do short term projects, summer work etc. For example, someone in a chemical plant may have the need to use Matlab software but they may not have the skills at that point of time. By searching APCWorld, they may find a student who could easily tackle the Matlab related problem and provide a solution in a short time. This makes a win-win situation. The company receives fast and effective services from a student. The student benefits by getting both industrial enrichment and also extra income which can be so critically useful to pay his student bills. In the process, there is ample opportunity for developing friendship between the students, professors and industry engineers.

APCWorld also aims at helping practicing engineers to look for employment in a simple, informal manner. Since APCWorld focuses on process control area only, the process of posting your bio data/personal information is fast and simple compared to large job hunting sites. It is also fast and easy for process control companies and other industry/manufacturing personnel to quickly find appropriate candidates for job interviews.

One of the most powerful and useful aspects of APCWorld is the process control Forum. Here, anyone can post a question and open it for the general community to answer. Various industrial engineers watch the site regularly and will assist on a variety of process control topics, for example - questions on DCS, PLC, PID, PID tuning, primary control, advanced process control, model based control, neural networks, multivariable model based control, inferential control, constraint control, constraint overrides, process control training, PID tuning training and a variety of process control related topics

Make us your home for all your process control needs ranging from process control questions, advice, job opportunities, summer intern jobs and short term summer projects benefiting both students and the industry.
