《控制工程基础》是全国各高等院校机械类专业必修的一门基础课。这门课具有理论性强、内容抽象、概念繁杂等特点。在传统教学模式下，许多学生对这门课学习兴趣低，不能深入地理解课程知识，无法系统地建立知识框架。针对这门课的特点和教学过程中所存在的问题，提出了混合教学模式《控制工程基础》下层次化教学，对于基础夯实和选择继续深造的同学，注重理论混合培养模式；对于基础薄弱和选择就业的同学，向应用型方向发展，结合案例教学和MATLAB软件进行虚拟仿真教学等措施，来激发不同方向的学生对这门课的兴趣。
“Fundamentals of Control Engineering” is a basic course required for all mechanical majors in higher education institutions nationwide. This course is characterized by strong theoreticality, abstract content and complicated concept. Under the traditional teaching mode, many students are not interested in this course. They can’t understand the course knowledge deeply and establish the knowledge framework systematically. In view of the characteristics of this course and the problems in the teaching process, we propose a mixed teaching mode “Fundamentals of Control Engineering” with hierarchical teaching. For students with solid foundation and those who choose to pursue further study, the hybrid teaching mode focuses on theory. For students with weak foundation and those who choose to pursue employment, they should develop in the direction of application, and carry out virtual simulation teaching by combining case and MATLAB software. The purpose of this approach is to stimulate the interest of students in different directions in this course.
