Students first study a broad range of fundamental engineering topics, core mechanical engineering topics, and fundamental subjects of automotive engineering. They then study advanced automotive engineering concepts related to the primary parts of automotive systems, such as their structures, their mechanisms and their motions. The objective of this course is to cultivate researchers and engineers who can develop lighter, stronger, and safer cars. Therefore, students study thermodynamics and fluid mechanics to develop engines; mechanisms and mechanics of materials to design car structures; and dynamics and control of safe and comfortable driving to improve drivability.
