Abstract

Motion control systems are a core course in the field of automation engineering. In light of the emergence of new technologies and industries, as well as the context of engineering education program accreditation, this course has faced a series of challenges, including outdated content, weakened skill development, low student engagement, and limited experimental opportunities. To address these issues and align with future industry trends, the curriculum for motion control systems has been redefined based on the three major principles of engineering accreditation. With a focus on professional training objectives, new standards for the motion control systems course have been established. Beneficial reforms and explorations have been conducted in three key areas: curriculum content, teaching methods, and experimental instruction. From a practical perspective, the results have been promising, with all course objectives being successfully achieved and noticeable improvements in students' abilities to analyze, design, and practically implement motion control systems.
