The Master’s in Control Science and Engineering at Beihang University (Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics) is a full-time, research-oriented graduate engineering program typically completed in 2–3 years of study that aims to develop advanced expertise in theory and applications of automatic control and intelligent systems. This discipline is a national key first-level engineering field at Beihang’s School of Automation Science and Electrical Engineering, and the program combines rigorous theoretical coursework—such as automatic control theory, systems dynamics, control system design and automation technologies—with practical, hands-on experience in modern laboratories and research projects guided by leading faculty. Students may engage in research areas such as nonlinear and robust control, intelligent control, robotic systems, networked control, navigation and guidance, and pattern recognition and intelligent systems as part of their master’s thesis work, reflecting the school’s strong emphasis on innovation and multidisciplinary problems in aerospace, robotics, manufacturing and related sectors. The curriculum balances foundational instruction with opportunities to apply control theory to real engineering challenges, preparing graduates for careers in research and development, advanced engineering roles in industry, or further doctoral study, while also offering international students options for English-taught coursework and a vibrant academic environment in Beijing.
