Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences
The main aim of course is introduce a students to technological trends in the construction of cars and motorcycles. These are primarily power units, chassis construction, vehicle electronics and active and passive safety of vehicles. The teaching will be focused on non-conventional vehicle designs and prediction of the development of road transport vehicles.
