Abstract

This manuscript explores the transformative integration of Free and Open-Source Software (FOSS), particularly Scilab, in control engineering education at Universitas 17 Agustus 1945 (UTA45) in Jakarta, Indonesia. The paper emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of control engineering and its crucial role in technological innovations. It discusses the challenges in control engineering education, highlighting the importance of comprehending intricate diagrams and the incorporation of software tools. The focus shifts to the utilization of FOSS in control engineering education, emphasizing online accessibility, multimedia learning resources, mathematical modeling, comparative analysis, lab migration, and rapid prototyping. Control System is an applicative subject that relied on modern computation tools and concept together with the advancement of our current technology. Thus the implementation of FOSS also considered as the advancement in this field. Although the existence of the current software in control engineering education has support the modelling and simulation purposes, many industries are applied control engineering without using that software. Scilab is a FOSS computation software that run in multi Operating System environment such as Microsoft Windows, Linux and Macintosh. The integration of Scilab in control engineering education fosters an accessible, inclusive, and engaging learning environment, preparing students for the challenges of the future.
