Control system design packages like MATLAB, MATRIXX, Control C, SIMNON, etc. have become essential ingredients of both undergraduate and graduate courses in the fields of systems and controls. The use of MATLAB and its companion toolboxes in teaching graduate and undergraduate courses was reported by many educators in the past. The experience with the use of SIMULINK and MATLAB in Intelligent Control Course is introduced which is offered to graduate students at Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics (BUAA). The use of SIMULINK for simulation of intelligent control of their behavior is emphasized. The MATLAB features useful in this course are presented. How SIMULINK and MATLAB help in enhancing the students’ understanding of the material and reducing the amount of time spent in performing computational homework assignments is discussed.
