Graduate School Machinery and vehicle systems are both basic science and applied. As a doctoral student, you will learn technical problem solving through quantitative and qualitative thinking.
The development of measurement methods and simulation models are both important elements in the graduate school. You can also carry out your own research through both theoretical and practical experiments. In the graduate school of machine and vehicle systems, the research is focused on three specializations: applied artificial intelligence (AI), vehicle dynamics, and traffic safety. Read more about the different specializations in the study plan.
The Graduate School is organised within the Department of Mechanics and Maritime Sciences.
