The Department of Automobile Engineering was established in the year 2009 at the very inception of Dr. Sudhir Chandra Sur Degree Engineering College. The department started with a 4 years B. Tech course (capacity of 60 students) and later on, Diploma in Automobile Engineering (capacity of 60 students) started in 2014. The department offers courses to ensure a regular supply of top notch Automobile Engineers who have hands on experience and are well versed with latest Automobile Technology to fill up the demand gap between industry and academia. The department has state of the art laboratory facilities to provide hands on training to the students in the emerging field of specialization. Automobile engineering students get exposure to practically all fields of engineering. Automobile is a branch where all sorts of engineering and technologies are involves e.g. Automobile, Mechanical, Electrical, Electronics, Industrial design. The department has their student chapter under SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers).

Vision

To be recognized as a space of excellent education and research in the field of Automobile Engineering generating the dedicated workforce and to help as an important resource for industries, research and society most importantly.

Mission

• To uphold academic growth by developing a space where the students will be engaged in the search of new knowledge and therefore inventive ideas will emerge.
• To implement a comprehensive approach in designing the curriculum so that the students can be in touch with the advances in engineering thus meeting the industry requirements.
• To develop coordination with important industries, R&D organization, educational institutions for continuous improvement in teaching, training and research.
• To provide the students such an environment where leadership and ethical values will be appreciated leading to meaningful contributions to the society.

Program Outcomes

• PO1. Engineering Knowledge: Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, fundamentals, and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering problems related to automobile engineering.
