Automotive Powertrain Certificate Program
The Powertrain course reviews engine design and machining fundamentals. It studies the processes for creating engine components, including fuel, exhaust, brake, suspension, steering and frame systems. Candidates will learn how to use software to check the kinematics and structural integrity of the designs. Candidates will create engine subsystems as well as related tooling. This course leverages real-world design problems presented by automotive manufacturers for case work throughout the course.
