Special projects in automotive design and build

MEC3831

Synopsis

In this unit, you will have the chance to sharpen your design skills by tackling automotive challenges as part of a large, multidisciplinary team. Through this experience, you'll develop an understanding of the necessary trade-offs required to meet diverse demands, such as manufacturing capabilities, sustainability, and cost-efficiency, all while aiming for high-performance designs. Additionally, you'll gain hands-on knowledge of relevant manufacturing practices and play an active role in the fabrication process. As part of this collaborative effort, you'll be expected to work effectively within the team, take initiative in specific areas, and navigate a broad range of technical and non-technical issues related to the automotive project.
