Objectives
The student must acquire knowledge and skills related to the interior design of motor vehicles and railways. Acquire knowledge and skills related to chassis and body design for this type of vehicle. Knowledge of airframes and aerodynamics. The propulsion system and its different types that currently exist on the market. You will acquire basic technical knowledge that will allow you to formulate the dynamics of the movement of these vehicles by reproducing their behavior on the roads. You will need to acquire design skills for these vehicles and their components using basic artistic techniques used in the industry. It will handle with ease different types of materials used in the construction of these vehicles, including those used in surface finishes (paints, polymers, etc.) The practices are oriented to acquire artistic skills in terms of drawing sketches, sketches and chromatic finishes of different bodies and textures that make them up.
