Mobility engineering master's at Chalmers

The aim of the Mobility engineering master's programme is to prepare you to develop sustainable, high-performance mobility solutions. You will be trained to understand features, design requirements and challenges of the present and future mobility solutions. You will also gain a holistic knowledge of mobility solutions and the ability to apply them for different transportation needs and environments. Sustainable development is considered throughout the programme in all focus areas.

Within the programme, you will choose one of the following four profiles: Aerospace, Automotive engineering, Marine technology and Railway technology. The aim with the profiles is to focus and obtain in-depth knowledge in one of the transport areas to prepare you for working as a specialist within that field. Beyond the compulsory courses, which are common for all profiles there will be a project course for each profile.

Different subjects are discussed from a technical, societal, economical and human perspective. The programme is based on lectures, assignments, simulations, experiments and projects carried out as real case studies. The interconnection and collaboration with the transportation industry in the programme is significant and includes guest lectures, study visits, laboratory exercises as well as tasks to our project courses. In the project courses, you will gain skills in project work, including communication, teamwork and project management. The master thesis projects are often carried out in collaboration with the industry, or together with researchers.

Please note that the master's programme in Mobility Engineering is replacing our previous programmes Automotive Engineering and Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering.

Topics covered

The subjects of system engineering, functional safety, propulsion systems, mechatronics, optimization, structural engineering, product life management are fundamental areas in the Mobility engineering programme.

The courses handle topics such as sustainable high-performance propulsion (including combustion, hybrid and electric powertrains), reliability analysis, load analysis and responses, passive and active safety to reduce and prevent injuries, vehicle engineering, aerodynamics and thermal management, numerical methods, structural mechanics, structural and material deterioration, and designing and optimization of mechanical components.
