Due to the diversity of participating groups and flexible setup, the MSc programme can offer many specializations, ranging from a pure engineering profile to more theoretical oriented research.

Delft Center for Systems and Control (DCSC)
Teaching and research at the DCSC encompasses the wide area of modelling, estimation and identification, control and optimisation of linear, nonlinear and hybrid dynamical systems. Applications include, but are not limited to, mechatronics and microsystems, sustainable industrial processes, transportation and traffic control, adaptive optics, automotive applications, and physical imaging systems. DCSC has extensive laboratory facilities and participates in many collaborative research projects with industrial partners.

Systems and Control at TU/e
Systems and Control at TU/e focuses especially on positioning systems, automotive applications, machine dynamics, biomedical modelling of basic physiological processes and instruments, embedded dynamic systems, hybrid and networked systems, acoustics and controls, and large-scale process control systems.  Within these application areas, an integrated approach addresses physical and experimental modelling, signal analysis and processing, model-based controller design and hardware and software systems.

Systems and Control at UT
The program in Twente has two specializations: Robotics and Mechatronics and Systems and Control Theory. Twente focuses on both fundamentals and applications in biomedical engineering, robotics, mechatronics, precision equipment, MEMS (mechanical electronic micro systems) and hybrid and embedded systems. Expertise centres around general mathematical systems theory, robust control, infinite dimensional systems, hybrid systems, learning and adaptive control systems and modelling of physical systems with applications in such domains as mechatronics, robotics, machine dynamics, signal processing, embedded control systems and computer science.
