Automotive Engineering Certificate


Program Description


The Department of Automotive Engineering offers a post baccalaureate certificate that can either be completed in a traditional in-person format or fully online. Students have the option of specializing in a specific area of interest (examples include Advanced Propulsion Systems, Manufacturing and Materials, Connected and Autonomous Vehicles, Systems Integration and Human Factors), or choosing a sampling of courses from multiple areas. Courses may be completed on a timeline that fits with the student’s schedule. Courses in the certificate program are completed at the 6000 or 8000 level, which allows them to be applied towards an Automotive Engineering Master’s or PhD degree, should a student decide to continue their education with the department.
