Electric vehicle engineering program for Vehicle

Automobile industry is grooming day by day. Many upcoming and up to date technologies keeps on strengthening this industry, like Volvo technology provided a boost to the BMW and other heart favorite motor car. With the effect of precision engineering, Volvo technology made fuel consumption low with maximum efficiency.

Similarly Ford Motor Co. and the University of Detroit Mercy announced Tuesday that they have developed a new seven-course advanced electric vehicle program to help Ford and other engineers develop the skills needed to build tomorrow’s electric cars.

Derrick Kuzak the vice president of global product development Ford’s group said that “What we were looking for here was the ability to create a set of course works that is really tailored to the needs of engineers”.

Kuzak said the industry’s push toward electric vehicles is creating the most fundamental change in the automotive engineering world in at least 15 years. As a result, engineers from precision engineering company are trained to develop and integrate the new systems used in electric vehicles are in high demand.

Leo Hanifin, dean of the University of Detroit’s college of engineering, said his university has been educating engineers for more than 100 years in precision engineering services and hopes the concentration in advanced electric vehicle engineering will help keep Michigan and local engineers at the forefront of the industry.

Ford is hoping to better train up to 2,000 of its engineers over the next 10 years by working with the University of Detroit Mercy, through its own internal courses and by working with other colleges that offer similar courses.
