INTRODUCTION  
Recent advances in Control and Signal Processing techniques have led to unprecedented increase in the number of engineering applications such as in Vehicle Control, Electric Drives, Power System Analysis, Communication, Robotics, Industrial Automation, Chemical Processes and Mechatronic system and many more. The aim of this short-term course includes convergence of a number of advanced Control and Signal Processing techniques including the recent developed ones and their applications to some real-world Engineering Problems.

The course focuses on a series of class room as well as laboratory sessions covering both the fundamentals and recent advances in control and signal processing techniques. One of the interesting features of the course is to provide hands-on sessions on how to successfully simulate different control and signal processing algorithms using the available MATLAB toolboxes in Control and Signal Processing. Thus, these will supplement the theory sessions covered in the class room sessions. The course will also provide laboratory demonstrations on control and real-time implementation in DSP platforms.

VENUE
The course will be organized at the National Institute of Technology (NIT), Rourkela. It is one of the premier national level institutions for technical education in the country and is funded by the Government of India. It is situated at the eastern end of Rourkela steel city, beyond Sector-1 over an area of 262 hectares of land. NIT Rourkela has fourteen academic departments which offer B.Tech, M.Tech and PhD programs in various areas of engineering and technology. The Institute is a participant of the Technical Education Quality Improvement programme of Government of India.
 
DEPT. OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING
Department of Electrical Engineering, NIT Rourkela was established in 1961. Since its inception, the Department is under dynamic progress and is reputed for imparting quality education both at B.Tech, M.Tech levels. The Department currently runs two M.Tech programmes with the specializations in (i) Power Control and Drives, (ii) Electronic Systems and Communication. Besides the undergraduate and postgraduate teaching, a good number of research scholars are working on different areas of Electrical Engineering towards the award of PhD degrees. The Department has well equipped modern laboratories such as Signal Processing & Communication, Image Processing & Computer Vision, Power Electronics & Drives, Control & Robotics, Embedded Systems & Real-Time and Soft Computing Labs for pursuing research in the emerging areas of Electrical Engineering.
FACULTY
NIT Rourkela has a good number of Professors specialized in the area of Control and Signal Processing in both Electrical and Electronics & Communication Engg. Departments who have designed the course and will deliver lectures. In addition to this experts from Jadavpur University and IIT Kharagpur will deliver a number of lectures.
