Abstract

Recently, there have been a number of voices from industry that control education at the university is too theoretical and so university graduates are lack of practical ability to apply the control idea to actual systems. In order to reflect these voices, this paper investigates a few examples of successful control education in Asian countries, and presents a modern curriculum of control education, and an effective methodology of control education. For effective control education, we need design and simulation practices of control system using computer software packages, and hands-on experiments using physical hardware plants. The experimental setups should be rugged and reliable to prevent from the breakdown by the students who are non-experts in dealing with hardwares and softwares.

현재 공과대학의 여러 학부 또는 학과에서 제공되고 있는 제어공학 교육이 이론 교육에 치우쳐 실제 산업현장에서 적용과 응용능력에 문제점이 있다는 지적이 있어왔다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여, 동양문화권 배경하에서 성공적인 제어공학 교육을 수행하고 있는 몇 가지 사례를 살펴보고, 현대적인 제어공학 교과내용 및 효과적인 제어공학의 교육방법을 제시한다. 효과적인 제어공학 교육을 위해서는 이론교육과 더불어 컴퓨터 소프트웨어를 이용한 제어시스템 설계와 시뮬레이션, 그리고 실제 플랜트를 활용한 실험실습이 필수적이며, 미숙련 학생들을 위하여 튼튼하고 신뢰할 수 있는 견실한 하드웨어 시스템이 필요하다.
