PhD Program in Automotive Engineering

Aims

The Automotive Engineering PhD program is the highest academic degree in the Department of Automotive Engineering. This program seeks to educate students to a level of expertise in the management field of R&D projects for the automotive industry, while also train individuals with inspirational minds for the development and transfer of automotive technology and relevant needs. PhD students who graduate successfully will have the potential to engage in educational and research positions within the universities.

Length and Contents

This PhD program takes 5 years to complete, and includes two components - coursework and research. The coursework phase begins from the time of enrollment, and lasts for a maximum of four 16-week semesters. At the end of this phase students take a general exam, and upon approval proceed to the research phase of the program, where the student works on his or her project under the supervision of a supervisor and a conducting committee.
