This document provides an introduction and overview of control systems engineering. It outlines the topics that will be covered in the course, including modeling control systems in the frequency and time domains, time response analysis, stability, and design techniques like root locus and Bode plots. The course aims to introduce fundamental concepts in control systems and their applications. Key concepts discussed include open-loop and closed-loop systems, modeling using Laplace transforms and transfer functions, and time and frequency domain analysis methods. Assessment will include assignments, quizzes, tests, and a final exam.
