What You Will Learn

This course is designed for engineering students or engineers that want to learn more about the basics of control systems.

Who Should Attend

Engineering students or anyone interested in learning more about controls.

Target Audiences

Engineering students or anyone interested in learning more about controls.

This course covers everything an Introduction to Controls Course should cover and much more. I will clearly explain to you control systems from the most basic ideas to where we currently are in research. I cover a huge range of topics including: system response, root-locus, bode plots, nyquist, state-space, digital control, optimal control. I use MATLAB in the course to help you learn!

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have access to the course materials?

You can view and review the lecture materials indefinitely, like an on-demand channel.

Can I take my courses with me wherever I go?

Definitely! If you have an internet connection, courses on Udemy are available on any device at any time. If you don’t have an internet connection, some instructors also let their students download course lectures. That’s up to the instructor though, so make sure you get on their good side!
