The IEEE CSS Technical Committee on Control Education promotes public awareness, university education, and continuing education related to control. It enhances the theory and practice of control systems education and improves accessibility through resource sharing. The committee emphasizes the importance of laboratory experiments, computer-aided learning, and the use of distance and virtual education technologies in control education. The committee aims to raise general awareness among pre-college students and teachers about the significance of systems and control technology, highlighting the cross-disciplinary nature.
