Control engineering is a cross-disciplinary engineering application domain; it is part of almost all engineering courses (electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering,…) as well as applied physics and computer science. Basic knowledge of control engineering at bachelor level is usually available to developers in industrial companies, but the more advanced methods and strategies of this knowledge domain are only known to specialists and experts.

Due to the increasing automation of processes, plants and equipment, and the use of intelligent and adaptive action strategies in industrial control systems, the expansion of control engineering expertise among developers of products and applications is a mainstay of innovation in all areas of technology.

The certificate programme ‘Industrial Control’ brings participants with already acquired basic knowledge in the field of control engineering to the current state of industrial controls as they are embedded in innovative applications.

Building on the classical frequency domain methods for continuous systems, this module uses the prior knowledge to apply it to discrete-time systems as they become necessary in industrial applications with computer-based control (microcontrollers, DSP, etc.). For this purpose, the mathematical description of such sampling systems is introduced. The existing connections with continuous system descriptions (in the frequency and time domains) are clarified, and controllers for time-discrete systems are derived from them. Furthermore, advanced analysis and synthesis methods for such digital systems are presented.

The programme includes 14 hours for theory and 7 hours for exercises. It can be offered in a 3-day face-to-face course as well as in a 7-week (3 hours per week) online course.
