Automotive Engineering
Automotive engineering, along with aerospace engineering and naval architecture, is a branch of vehicle engineering, incorporating elements of mechanical, electrical, electronic, software, and safety engineering as applied to the design, manufacture and operation of motorcycles, automobiles, and trucks and their respective engineering subsystems. It also includes modification of vehicles. Manufacturing domain deals with the creation and assembling the whole parts of automobiles is also included in it. The automotive engineering field is research intensive and involves direct application of mathematical models and formulas. The study of automotive engineering is to design, develop, fabricate, and test vehicles or vehicle components from the concept stage to production stage. Production, development, and manufacturing are the three major functions in this field.
Motor Vehicle Mechanics
Motor vehicle mechanics, also known as automotive mechanics or auto mechanics, are technicians who specialize in repairing and maintaining automobiles, including cars, trucks, and motorcycles. They work on engines, transmissions, brakes, steering and suspension systems, and other mechanical components of vehicles. They repair cars and light trucks, and perform maintenance work on vehicles to keep them road-worthy and to avert major repair bills for customers down the road.
Auto Electrics and Electronics
An auto electrician is an automotive professional who installs, inspects, maintains and repairs all electrical parts of automotive vehicles. They typically work on cars, trucks, buses and other vehicles in the transportation industry. Some auto electricians also work on inspecting and repairing agricultural equipment1. They are responsible for diagnosing and repairing electrical issues in vehicles, and work with a variety of electrical components, such as batteries, alternators, electronic fuel injection systems, ABS systems, and various sensors.
Diesel Plant Fitting
Diesel plant fitting is a job that involves repairing and maintaining heavy vehicles or plant equipment. A Heavy Diesel Fitter is a mechanic who inspects engines, diagnoses and repairs faults, performs routine maintenance, and dismantles and reassembles engines and other components.
