Automobile engineering is a specialised branch of mechanical engineering. You will dream up new vehicles and even new modes of transport. You will design them keeping in mind factors like performance, economy, comfort, maintenance, environmental impact and last but not the least - looks. If you specialise in any particular area you could use your knowledge to come up with new ideas and solutions to problems plaguing cars for decades. For instance, if engines are your forte then maybe you can come up with an engine that is more fuel-efficient or one, which runs on alternative fuels such as methanol or even water! At senior levels, you will be called upon to look after the production and quality control in massive assembly plants. Your job profile will also include marketing the finished product.

You need to be mad about cars, bikes and the likes. Only then you will not be bored to the death learning the timing mechanisms of different engines.

You need to have a good foundation in mathematics and physics. Good logical and problem solving skills are essential. You need to like working with tools, drawing complex sketches and conceptualising structures. You also need to be patient and perseverant. Education wise the best entry point is B.E in automobile engineering. You can pursue this after class 12. Alternatively you can do your diploma in automobile engineering after class 10 and then do your B. E.

You can also do your B.E in mechanical engineering and then a master's in automobile engineering. Alternatively you can do your masters in mechanical engineering with automobiles as your area of specialisation.

If you do your B.Sc. with Physics/Chemistry/Mathematics you can go on to do your B.Tech in automobiles. After doing your M.Sc. in Physics you could do your M.Tech in mechanical and automation technology.

In these courses you will learn:

Basic of Computer Science

Mathematics Fluid Mechanics

Basic Electrical & Electronics Engineering

Technical Drawing

Welding

Industrial Management & Road Transport Organisation

Automobile Chassis and Engines

At LPU the BTech Automotive Design Engineering trains the students on a range of topics including designing, manufacturing, and maintenance of automobiles.This course equips the students to meet the challenge of creating new and improved vehicle systems along with a good grasp of mechanical engineering principles and an understanding of the new materials being used. It deals with technical designing for fuel and performance efficiency and the second aspect primarily focuses on designing the aesthetics of the vehicle.

The eligibility for the programme is Pass with 60% aggregate marks in 10+2 (with Physics, Mathematics, and English) or equivalent. One has to qualify LPUNEST as well. LPU has designed the with the most advanced & upgraded curriculum to meet the corporate Industry requirement. At the end of the course, LPU students become competent enough to get their dream jobs/careers. The program focuses at : Developing the ability to comprehend the systems in the field of IC Engines, Automobile, Vehicle dynamics, vehicle testing, and Chassis Design. Propose solution built on an understanding of Thermodynamics, Automotive suspension systems, Homologation and Pollution Control, Automotive component Design, Computer-aided vehicle design, and computer-aided manufacturing for the solutions to real-world problems. Demonstrate the ability to propose cost-effective optimised solutions for the automobile sector using simulated environments of Computer-aided Vehicle design, computer-aided manufacturing, and computer-aided engineering. Effectively build and communicate the solutions crafted using learnings from basic automobile engineering, basic sciences, mathematics, and computational skills and tools. Industry certifications, MOOCs, Hackathons / Co-curricular Competitive events, Workshops, Guest lectures, Educational Trips, Live projects, Incubation projects, Community projects, projects with NGOs, etc. are an integral part of the curriculum. The Content delivery is done by industry experts. There are Projects to be made in collaboration with the industry. Apart from the regular curriculum, Engineering Minors are offered to students by LPU which are - HVAC, Materials Treatments & Testing, Robotics & Mechatronics, and Six Sigma The highest salary was 25 lpa and the average was 5 LPA. THe companies in which the LPU students got recruited are Chemical Brothers, Infollion Research, Nestle, Transport Corporation of India, Tata Technologies, Jubilant Biosys, Indegene Lifesystems, Eclerx, Focus Energy Ltd, Revy Environmental Solutions Pvt Ltd, Combustion Research Associates, S K Minerals, Wabag, Cognizant, Capgemini, Accenture, Aakash Educational Services, Cactus Communications, Pulsus Healthtech, etc
