Master
of Automotive Engineering (MS)
School of Science and Engineering
Atlantic International University
The Master of Automotive Engineering (MS)
program objective is to help students use
and improve their technical and leadership
skills in the area of automotive engineering,
which includes strategic planning, design,
product engineering, manufacturing and engineering
management. The Master of Automotive Engineering
program is offered online via distance learning.
After evaluating both academic record and
life experience, AIU staff working in conjunction
with Faculty and Academic Advisors will
assist students in setting up a custom-made
program, designed on an individual basis.
This flexibility to meet student needs is
seldom found in other distance learning
programs. Our online program does not require
all students to take the same subjects/courses,
use the same books, or learning materials.
Instead, the online Master of Automotive
Engineering curriculum is designed individually
by the student and academic advisor. It
specifically addresses strengths and weaknesses
with respect to market opportunities in
the student’s major and intended field
of work. Understanding that industry and
geographic factors should influence the
content of the curriculum instead of a standardized
one-fits-all design is the hallmark of AIU’s
unique approach to adult education. This
philosophy addresses the dynamic and constantly
changing environment of working professionals
by helping adult students in reaching their
professional and personal goals within the
scope of the degree program.
Important: Below is an example of the topics
or areas you may develop and work on during
your studies. By no means is it a complete
or required list as AIU programs do not
follow a standardized curriculum. It is
meant solely as a reference point and example.

Center Master of Automotive Engineering
Job Description
Master of Automotive Engineering
Automotive Engineers apply science and
math know-how to the challenges of the motor
vehicle and parts manufacturing industry
directing the construction and testing of
a vehicle's engine, brakes, suspension,
transmission, and numerous mechanical and
electrical systems. At the same time, Automotive
Engineers insure that the whole process
conforms to quality, cost and other specifications.
Types of Automotive Engineers include mechanical
engineers, who focus mainly on engines and
transmissions, electrical and electronics
engineers, who design electronic systems,
and industrial engineers, who design motor-vehicle
factories and production equipment.
Skills Required
for an Automotive Engineer
