It is the study of engineering that deals with designing the vehicle, Manufacturing new vehicle, Repairing and servicing vehicles. The future engineers of the automobile can specialize in the alternative areas such as aerodynamic, fuels, the chassis, the electronics, the emissions, the ergonomic one, the manufacture, the materials, the creation of a fast prototype, the security or the management etc. The department of Automobile Engineering was set up in the year 2011 that offers B.E. degree in Automobile Engineering. The department has well equipped laboratories in the areas of aerodynamics, engine and noise, vibration and harshness, and plans to establish a centre of Excellence for Engine and Noise-Vibration. Some major thrust areas of the future are vehicle structures, Aerodynamics, vehicle dynamics, Composites, Computational Fluid Dynamics, Non-destructive testing and Wind Energy.
