MSc Advanced Control and Systems Engineering

Control Engineering is a multi-disciplinary subject, with applications across a wide range of industrial sectors.  The Control Systems Group in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the University of Manchester has been running an MSc course in Advanced Control and Systems Engineering since 1968.  The course is geared for graduates from a variety of scientific and engineering disciplines.

The aims of the course are to:

provide advanced education in control and systems engineering, emphasizing modern theoretical developments and their practical application
give a sound fundamental understanding of the principles underlying the operation of control systems
enable students to apply modern control principles in various areas of industry
Students acquire a range of intellectual skills that cover the design, analysis and simulation of control systems. A strong emphasis is placed on practical and transferable skills through laboratory exercises and the use of software packages.

Manchester Engineering Campus Development (MECD), the University of Manchester's new £400m purpose-built home for engineering and material science, is nearing completion. The physical move to the new development is scheduled to take place between January 2021 and December 2021. Whilst it is anticipated that access to equipment or work on projects for which such access is required may be limited during the period of the move, plans are underway to ensure that any disruption caused is minimized, a wide selection of dissertation projects will continue to be available, and excellent student experience remains pivotal. If you have any questions about how the move may affect you, please contact pgt-eee@manchester.ac.uk.
