Course Selection Guidance for MEng Students
with Interests in Dynamics, Systems and Controls
The DSC group is most easily described using a small list of both disciplines and applications:

Suggested core courses:

• MAE 5730 Intermediate Dynamics and Vibrations (Fall)
• MAE 5780 Feedback Controls (Fall)

Typically, students take two or more of these core courses.
Follow-on courses include:

• MAE 3780 Mechatronics (Fall)
• MAE 5180 Autonomous Mobile Robots (Spring)
• MAE 5910 Model Based Systems Engineering (SYSEN) (Fall)
• MAE 6750 Nonlinear Vibrations (Spring)
• MAE 6760 Model-Based Estimation (Spring)
• MAE 6680 Multivariable Control Theory (Spring)
• MAE 7760 Applied Dynamical Systems (Spring)

Most students could benefit from taking a course in Applied Mathematics such as:

• MAE 3100 Intro to Applied Math (Fall)
• MAE 6810 Methods of Applied Mathematics I (Fall)
• CEE 6290 Numerical Methods for Engineers (Fall)

Additional courses to broaden engineering knowledge

• MAE 5230 Intermediate Fluid Dynamics with CFD (Spring)
• MAE 6110 Foundations of Solids Mechanics (Fall)
