http://dl-live.theiet.org/content/journals/10.1049/ree.1975.0115
The development of control engineering design techniques over the last two decades is traced and their application is examined to show how they may be reflected back into the undergraduate teaching of engineers. Control engineering can be regarded as a thought-provoking orderly discipline fulfilling the same functions for science students as does latin to the arts student.
