Course Highlights
Initial Exploration of Automotive Engineering Knowledge
From its inception in design to the complexities of mechanics, mechanical design, materials science, fluid dynamics, and chemical engineering, automotive engineering has evolved into a multidisciplinary field integrating various cutting-edge technologies. Today, it seamlessly intersects with mechanical electronics engineering, theoretical mechanical design, computer science, electronic technology, physiology, and more, making it a comprehensive discipline covering a multitude of advanced technologies. Our instructors will adeptly introduce children to fundamental concepts such as internal combustion engine principles, engine design, mechanical fundamentals, engineering thermodynamics, and technical drawing, providing them with a solid foundation in engineering and technology.
Enhancing Competence through Hands-on Practice
Children will acquire hands-on experience in vehicle design, performance tuning, and tool management by actively engaging with real automotive equipment and tools. They will learn how to optimize vehicle performance under varying conditions through a variety of tuning operations. Furthermore, the collaborative process of building a car together in groups of ten will cultivate children’s ability to think critically and problem-solve effectively within a team setting.
Exploring the Cutting-edge Automotive Industry
The automotive industry is experiencing rapid growth with extensive applications and promising prospects. A two-week automotive engineering camp presents a rare opportunity for high school students to explore a new world, igniting their passion and interest in advancing their education and careers in the fields of mechanical and engineering technology, both in university and in their future professional endeavors.
