Automobile Engineering is the specialized branch of mechanical engineering discipline .It deals with design and manufacturing of everything from small individual parts and devices to large systems related to automotive systems.

The role of automobile engineer is to develop and design the product from an idea to final product. In order to accomplish this, a broad range of skills are needed. He/she needs to design them for functionality, aesthetics, ergonomics and the ability along with efficiency to determine the best way to manufacture them and ensure they will operate without failure.

The breadth of the automobile engineering discipline allows students a variety of career options. Automobile engineers play a central role in industries such as automotive, aerospace, defence, marines, locomotive engines, electromechanical systems.
