Many engineers are engaged in only one area, such as circuit design or software
development. However, as a control systems engineer, you may fifind yourself
working in a broad arena and interacting with people from numerous branches of
engineering and the sciences. For example, if you are working on a biological
system, you will need to interact with colleagues in the biological sciences,
mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and computer engineering, not to
mention mathematics and physics. You will be working with these engineers at
all levels of project development from concept through design and, finally,
testing. At the design level, the control systems engineer can be performing
hardware selection, design, and interface, including total subsystem design to
meet specified requirements. The control engineer can be working with sensors
and motors as well as electronic, pneumatic, and hydraulic circuits.
