Typically, B.Tech. is for four years, minimum
eligibility for which is an intermediate (10 + 2) in science. Subjects usually
studied under this degree are Production Technology, Environmental Science and
Engineering, Applied Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics and Machinery, Mechanics of
Machines, Fuels and Lubricants, Automotive Diesel engines, Automotive Engine
Components, Automotive Electrical systems, Automotive Transmission, Automotive
Materials and Metallurgy, Automotive pollution and control, Manufacturing
Processes, Quality Control and Reliability Engineering etc.
Modern Automobile Engineering is a branch of
vehicle engineering, incorporating elements of mechanical, electrical,
electronic, software and safety engineering as applied to the design,
manufacture and operation of motorcycles, automobiles, buses and trucks and
their respective engineering subsystems.
Automobile engineers are involved in almost every aspect of designing cars and
trucks, from the initial concepts right through to manufacturing them.
Broadly speaking, automotive engineers are separated into three main streams:
product engineering, development engineering and manufacturing engineering.
Product engineer (also called design engineer), that would design
components/systems (i.e. brake engineer and battery engineer). This engineer
designs and tests a part, seeing that it meets all its requirements(i.e. the
shock), performs as required, material meets desired durability and so on.
The department would be focusing on efficient design alternate/ multifueled
vehicles, hybrid and pollution free vehicles.
