Control engineering - Definition

Control engineering is the engineering discipline that focuses on the mathematical modelling systems of a diverse nature, analysing their dynamic behaviour, and using control theory to make a controller that will cause the systems to behave in a desired manner.

Control engineering is closely related to electrical engineering, as electronic circuits can often be easily described using control theory techniques. At many universities, control engineering courses are primarily taught by electrical engineering faculty.

Other engineering disciplines also overlap with control engineering, as it can be applied to any system for which a suitable model can be derived.
