About this program
The Systems and Control master's program will train you to be an engineer with strong professional expertise in modeling, systems analysis, and controller design.
The Master's program Systems and Control will train you to be a specialist in the modeling and control of complex technical systems and processes of this type. To do this successfully, you take courses that cover the theory and mathematical basis behind modeling, systems analysis, and controller design, and you apply this theory to real systems. You will also gain knowledge about data-based control and artificial intelligence, as both topics are important in the design and control of future high-tech systems. In addition, you have the freedom to choose more than half of your courses from a list of electives, which allows you to delve into the application techniques you find most interesting.
