The Control Science and Dynamical Systems (CSDy) Center was established in 1963 as the Control Science Center with an interdepartmental faculty within the Institute of Technology (IT) at the University of Minnesota.
The CSDy Interdepartmental Ph.D. Program provides an opportunity for interdisciplinary research in control science and dynamical system theory. The program coordinates scholarly and scientific activity of these areas within IT and the University and coordinates its activities with industrial firms in the Minnesota region. CSDy faculty are drawn from the Departments of Aerospace Engineering and Mechanics, Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering, as well as from the Departments of Computer Science, Mathematics and Statistics, all in IT, and from the Departments of Economics and Political Science.
The Co-Directors of the CSDy Center are Prof. Gary Balas (AEM) and Prof. Tryphon Georgiou (ECE), and Rajesh Rajamani serves as CSDy’s Director of Graduate Studies. There are five students pursuing their Ph.Ds during the 2007-2008 academic year.
The Program featured a seminar series with distinguished speakers in the general area of Control Theory and Engineering and Dynamical Systems Theory. The list of speakers includes Professors Giorgio Rizzoni (Ohio State), Anna Stefanaopolus (Michigan), Babatunde Ogunnaike (Delaware), Domenico D'Alessandro (Iowa).
