SYNOPSIS of the Project

Formula SAE

This is a problem based learning subject. In this course, students will have to undertake (in group) one mechanical-automotive engineering design exercise. The main aim of this course is for the students to experience how to undertake real group design project. Students will have to go through the process of applying the various techniques and scientific principles (which they have learnt during the under graduate course) for them to achieve their goals. Students will be expected to be creative, brainstorm their ideas, discuss and apply the appropriate PR (public relation) to earn cooperation and commitment from various level of people (such as technicians, lecturers and their own peers), departments and other agencies (such as automotive car and component manufacturers), in order to get sufficient details for their goal to materialize within the time allocated. Concurrently, students will be given lectures related to mechanical design process and engineering design method (technology-independent), based on relevant engineering design books.

Objective for this course is to design and develop a Formula SAE Car based on the international Formula SAE Car rules & regulations.
