Description Contents Requirements Funding More

Automotive Technology offers a Master's degree program based on a systems approach, providing multidisciplinary knowledge. There are no comparable programs in Europe.

The automotive industry is fast-moving with new technologies. The traditional car has been developed into a controlled high-tech system full of mechanics, electronics, sensors and informatics. The increase in vehicle intelligence has led to a vast demand for highly educated engineers able to think on system level, to work in a variety of disciplines and to observe the complete system rather than a collection of components. This program teaches students to observe the car as a system. It offers in-depth knowledge about essential parts of a vehicle and about vehicle-to-vehicle communication and control. The program gives an outstanding starting point for a successful career. Eighty percent of the Dutch automotive industry is located in the region of Brainport Eindhoven. There's an active cooperation between TU/e and companies located here like Philips, DAF PACCAR and TomTom. The Automotive Technology educational program includes eight generic core courses, nine elective courses and two project assignments. The eight core courses are clustered in two distinctive parts: 'Driving Guidance' and 'Efficient Vehicle'. The second year consists of an internship and a graduation project.
