The advanced technologies and stunning models call upon an Automobile Enigneer

To make India self sufficient in availability of skilled manpower for sustaining growth and increasing competitiveness of the Automobile Industry.

The present scenario is that we are witnessing a variable growth of vehicle on road everyday..! The advanced technologies and stunning models all calls upon an Automobile Engineer who is behind this. 
Imagine the amount of satisfaction you experience when a model designed by you is on road with perfect innovations.
The growing demand of an Automobile Engineer !
The Indian auto industry is one of the largest in the world. It’s becoming more technology based. Vehicles today have more computer-processing power. The engineer of today has to work not only with tools but all most modern innovations. 
A considerable time is spent by a professionally skilled engineer on research and design of machines and systems for a vehicle. Once the plans and blueprints are ready the physical and mathematical principles are applied.

ABOUT AUTOMOBILE ENGINEERING 

• Safety Engineering is the assessment of different crash scenarios and the impact of the same on the vehicle occupant
• Fuel Economy relates to measuring the fuel efficiency of the vehicle in or kilometers per litre.  
• Vehicle dynamics refers to the designing of chassis, systems of suspension, steering, braking, frame, wheels and tires, traction control to meet the desired quality.                                                            
• NVH Engineering (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) 
• Automotive Electronics : Automotive electronics is a highly important aspect of automotive engineering. Modern vehicles employ dozens of electronic systems without which it would not have been possible for automobiles to meet modern safety and fuel economy requirements.
• Performance Engineering: depends on how faster a vehicle can accelerate, its top speed, how short and quickly a vehicle can completely stop from a set speed. 
• Durability / Corrosion Engineering: Evaluating a vehicle for tests like mileage, severe driving conditions, and corrosive salt baths.
• Package / Ergonomics engineering: Designs and analyses ample sea space, ingress/egress to the vehicle, driver’s field of vision, gauges and windows, engine compartment, and the component to component placement. Ergonomics is assessing the occupant's access to the steering wheel, pedals, and other driver/passenger controls.
•  Assembly Engineering: A skilled product development engineer works with the assembly/manufacturing engineers so that the resulting design is easy to assemble delivering appropriate functionality and appearance. Any new part in the design must support the development and manufacturing schedule of the model.
• Climate control:  Analysis on cabin environment and level of comfort related to the temperature and humidity.
• Shift Quality: The shift quality can be marked as one of the most important factors that affect the performances of ride, comfort of vehicles. 
• Drivability: Drivability is the vehicle’s response to general driving conditions. Cold starts and stalls, RPM dips, idle response, launch hesitations and stumbles, and performance levels.
• Quality management:  The International Automotive Task Force (IATF), a group of the world’s leading manufacturers and trade organizations, developed the standard ISO/TS 16949. This standard defines the design, development, production, and when relevant, installation and service requirements with the combination of principles of ISO 9001.

A career in AUTOMOBILE ENGINEERING

The transportation industry is changing. The industry accounts for 7.1 per cent of the country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The auto industry produced a total 19.84 million vehicles in April-January 2016, including passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, three wheelers and two wheelers, as against 19.64 million in April-January 2015.
Domestic sales of Passenger Vehicles grew by 8.13 per cent in April-January 2016 over the same period last year. Within the Passenger Vehicles, Passenger Cars rose by 10.18 per cent, during April-January 2016 over April-January 2015.The domestic sales of Commercial Vehicles increased by 9.43 per cent in April-January 2016 over the same period last year. Sales of Medium & Heavy Commercial Vehicles (M&HCVs) increased at 30.19 per cent.
