Automotive Engineering Training
Tonex offers a large selection of Automotive Engineering Training courses for systems engineers, software and hardware engineers, product development engineering, third-party vendors, and managers responsible for the development and implementation of systems, software and hardware in a motor vehicle.
The field of automotive engineering is rapidly evolving.
The automotive industry is undergoing a revolution marked by automation and electric power. Automobiles that drive themselves are already here. Self-driving cars will flood the market sooner than we think, and they’ll forever change the transportation landscape as we currently know it.
Today an average car is 90% hardware and 10% software. According to industry reports, in the future, hardware’s share will reduce to 40%, and the remaining will be divided amongst software (40%) and content (20%).
Auto experts believe that collaboration will be key as it’s difficult for auto manufacturers to sustain in the current disruptive scenario. Many auto industry analysts believe auto companies that don’t think technologically could face shrinkage or extinction.
Clearly, connected cars and software will be the main revenue growth driver toward the end of this decade in the automotive sector. Companies that aren’t able to do this are basically at great risk from a profitability point of view.
Auto companies have already started hiring people with tech backgrounds to future-proof themselves. Technologies like natural language processing, augmented reality, multi-screen environments powered by sensor-rich environments using 5G, and edge computing are bound to change the industry and automotive engineering even further.
Common duties of an automotive engineer include:
- Preparing design specifications
- Researching, developing and producing new vehicles or vehicle subsystems
- Using computerized models to determine the behavior and efficiency of a vehicle
- Investigating instances of product failure
- Preparing cost estimates for current or new vehicles
- Assessing the safety and environmental components of an automotive project
- Creating plans and drawings for new vehicle products
To be successful in automotive engineering, several skills are needed such as data analysis skills. Automotive engineers are responsible for performing and analyzing various automobile tests. Automotive engineers must be able to efficiently and effectively read and interpret data to improve vehicle performance and production.
Automotive engineers also need a good helping of technical skills related to this industry, including strong working knowledge of automobile maintenance and function.
Also to be proficient in automotive engineering, automotive engineers must be constantly updating their knowledge base through training courses like those offered by Tonex.
