What is the major of automation and which schools in China are stronger?

The inner feelings of a senior student who is about to graduate after two and a half years of major diversion;

Automation major, also known as "universal oil" major, will learn a lot of knowledge categories.

Simply put, automation is based on this control theory, learning related technologies and applying them to actual scenes. In the undergraduate stage, I mainly study electricity, control theory and other related courses, but in the senior year, I will also involve more professional courses such as pattern recognition and embedded system development! In college, automation major is basically a "combination of hard and soft" subject ~

There are relatively many universities offering automation specialty in China. Basically, as long as there are engineering classes, there will be automation majors. Among many colleges and universities, Tsinghua University, Shanghai Jiaotong University and Harbin Institute of Technology are the three established engineering schools with the strongest professional strength.

Among them, Tsinghua University Automation Department was established in 1970, which is the first automation department in China. The first-level discipline of automation is control science and engineering, and its first-level discipline control theory and control engineering and pattern recognition and intelligent system rank first. Other directions are also in the forefront of the country.

I want to mention Northeastern University here. Although the comprehensive strength is not up to the top three schools, the automation strength should not be underestimated. Northeastern University set up the major of industrial electrification automation in the first batch, and the doctoral program of automation became one of the first four automation disciplines in China, and the doctoral program of detection technology and automation device became one of the first two doctoral programs of detection technology and automation device in China.
