Diploma in Automobile Engineering 

at Indira Gandhi Polytechnic College, Ernakulum

Hello candidate.

Being an Automotive technician is quite an interesting role; pretty much, one gets to play with wires every day. You can be a contortionist quite often, inside of cars, upside down, underneath dashes. To troubleshoot vehicle problems is a big part of the job. If you love troubleshooting, it is a brilliant industry for you to come into. Especially in this day and age, a lot of things are going electric, especially with the electric cars. It is a great industry to get into and probably the best one for the future.

The BTech Automobile Engineering syllabus taught in classes includes two types of subjects. Core subjects and elective subjects. The core subjects are compulsory for you to study in every semester as they provide you with the foundational knowledge of the automobile field. Coming to the elective subject choices, these subjects allow you to choose some topics as per your interests, something that you enjoy learning about and would like to take ahead in your career journey.
