Control Engineering
Fall 2025
Jun Moon
Hanyang University
This is a course in modern control theory for continuous and discrete-time control systems.
This courses focuses on analysis and design of control systems with emphasis on frequency-
domain and time-domain (state-space) analysis, computer simulations, and controller design
techniques. You should be familiar with linear algebra, signals and systems, differential
equations, and basic mathematical analysis.
