Workshop on New Directions in Control Engineering Education, to be held at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, October 4-6, 1998

ECS-9812431海绵 本提案寻求支持，以举行控制工程教育的新方向在伊利诺伊大学厄巴纳-香槟分校，1998年9月20日至22日的校园研讨会。 研讨会的目的是汇集来自行业和工程教育的领导者，以确定控制技术快速发展所必需的控制教育的未来需求。 这些进步在传感器和执行器技术、微处理器技术和软件以及理论和计算机辅助设计方法中以不断增长的速度发生。 研讨会的预期成果将是一组建议，以帮助NSF确定新的举措，可能会创建最好的刺激控制工程教育的有益变化。

ECS-9812431 Spong This proposal seeks support to hold a Workshop on New Directions on Control Engineering Education on the campus of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, September 20-22, 1998. The purpose of the workshop is to bring together leaders from industry and leaders in engineering education to identify the future needs in control education that will be necessitated by rapid advancements in control technology. These advances are occurring at an ever increasing pace in sensor and actuator technology, microprocessor technology, and software, as well as in theory and in computer aided design methods. The expected outcome of the workshop will be a set of recommendations to help NSF determine new initiatives that might be created to best stimulate useful changes in control engineering education.
