Abstract

Control education is a mature area in which many professors and researchers have worked hard to face the challenge of providing a versatile education with a strong scientific base. All this without losing sight of the needs of the industry; adapting the contents, methodologies, and tools to the continuous social and technological changes of our time. This article presents a reflection on the role of automatic control in today's society, a review of the traditional objectives of control education through seminal work in the area, and finally a review of the main current trends.
