To provide a device for controlling a hybrid vehicle that can reduce the number of start-up times of an internal combustion engine and prevent deterioration in durability of a starting device.SOLUTION: A device for controlling a hybrid vehicle includes: a shift mode switching unit 16 for switching a shift mode including a manual shift mode and an automatic shift mode; and a travel mode switching unit 17 for switching a mode between a motor travel mode and an engine use mode of travelling using the power of an internal combustion engine 2 in accordance with the shift mode. When the shift mode is switched to the manual shift mode from the automatic shift mode, the travel mode switching unit 17 changes the travel mode to the engine use mode and prohibits switching of the travel mode thereafter for a specified time.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】 内燃機関の始動回数を低減させることができ、始動装置の耐久性の低下を防止することができるハイブリッド車両の制御装置を提供する。【解決手段】 手動変速モードと、自動変速モードとを含む変速モードを切り替える変速モード切替部１６と、モータ走行モードと、内燃機関２の動力を用いて走行するエンジン使用モードとを、前記変速モードに応じて切り替える走行モード切替部１７とを有し、前記走行モード切替部１７は、前記変速モードが前記自動変速モードから前記手動変速モードに切り替えられた場合に、前記走行モードを前記エンジン使用モードに変更し、その後前記走行モードの切り替えを規定時間禁止することとした。【選択図】図１
