Automotive, Minor

The Department of Mechanical Engineering has strong Dynamics, Systems and Controls (DSC) and Thermofluids Science (TFS) groups that are collectively research active with wide expertise in Transportation and Automotive systems including hybrid and electric drives and automation coupled with connected infrastructure. This Automotive minor will educate students in the Transportation and Automotive systems and will be accessible to non-ME students, e.g., Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Chemical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Business, Management, Mathematics and Physics to just name a few. Students going through this minor will be prepared to enter a diverse and globally competitive workforce with interdisciplinary knowledge that can meet next-generation challenges relating to advancing automotive technology.
