IFAC award: Control Education Life Time Achievement

Our TC has been given permission to make a triennial award during the ACE event to recognise those who have made outstanding contributions to control education. We welcome your recommendations now.

1st IFAC Workshop on Integrated Assessment Modelling for Environmental Systems

IAMES2018 focuses on Integrated Assessment Modeling (IAM), a scientific approach aimed at appraising environmental policies. It is a participative and iterative process in which scientists from different disciplines, policy makers and other stakeholders work together to merge knowledge from multiple domains (engineering, chemistry, physics, social and life sciences, economics, …) into a single framework, generating structured information useful for policy making.

2019 TC Meeting

Control Methods for Water Resource Systems CMWRS 2019

In the world of today society places heavy demands on the environment in general and water resources in particular. Waterways support a range of services including agriculture from irrigation, ecosystems, transport, local communities, and social amenities. Climate change interferes with the supply of water, so regulation of the water level to balance irrigation and environmental needs and keep the rivers navigable is of increasing importance.

Curriculum Survey

The Technical Committees on Education (IFAC and IEEE) are coordinating a survey to help the global community share its views on what control related topics we should be including in an engineering curriculum. Please take the 5minute survey and let us know what you think! [Deadline August 31st 2019]

IFAC world congress July 2020

We are delighted with the large number of education sessions and a record number of papers (61) at the world congress and the evidence of activity from our members. These include a demonstrator session and several invited sessions (Automatic control in aerospace, software in control education, virtual and remote labs and benchmarks in control education) as well as regular papers and a panel session discussing the results of the recently completed survey on control curricula (A survey of international views on a first course in systems and control for engineering undergraduates, published in the IFAC Journal of Systems and Control, 2020).
