Course Level Recommendations
Upper
ISA offers course level recommendations in an effort to facilitate the determination of course levels by credential evaluators.We advice each institution to have their own credentials evaluator make the final decision regrading course levels.

Overview
This course aims to
- To analyse a range of both continuous and discrete time systems.
- To introduce the concept of state-space.
- To introduce frequency-domain system analysis.
- To further the use of Matlab and Simulink in laboratories
Outcomes:
On successful completion of the module, students should be able to:
- Develop mathematical models for a range of dynamical systems.
- Change between different mathematical model representations (differential equation, state-space and transfer function).
- Linearise a nonlinear system about an operating point.
- Calculate responses of simple dynamical systems.
- Analyse simple systems using Bode plots.
- Use Matlab and Simulink to simulate and analyse a range of systems.
Course Disclaimer
Courses and course hours of instruction are subject to change.
Credits earned vary according to the policies of the students' home institutions. According to ISA policy and possible visa requirements, students must maintain full-time enrollment status, as determined by their home institutions, for the duration of the program.
ECTS (European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System) credits are converted to semester credits/quarter units differently among U.S. universities. Students should confirm the conversion scale used at their home university when determining credit transfer.
