Perhaps you are looking for electrical engineering. I took an EE course once that covered lots of control theory. I learned about Kalman filters and so on. As Kalman liked to point out, his work was one reason we were able to land on the moon. I took another course, definitely one of the harder ones, on mathematical optimization, also from the electrical engineering department.
 
Thanks
