Students completing the certificate program will have the ability to: 

1. apply knowledge of AEV vehicles to solve problems in AEV design and integration.
2. design, develop and use validated system models for AEV components and systems to solve problems associated with AEVs.
3. choose and integrate proper E-drives for vehicle powertrain and other applications associated with AEVs.
4. implement optimum solutions for control problems associated with AEV systems.
5. function effectively in multi-disciplinary teams and interface effectively with engineers for developing the AEV.

And, depending on the choice of electives, graduates will have the ability to:

  6. design and develop optimum power storage solutions by designing and developing battery systems. This includes all aspects of power storage such as battery chemistry, packaging and layout design, thermal management, manufacturing and charging process and life-cycle management.

  7. implement proper electronic solutions for power conversion and management problems associated with AEVs. 

  8. use techniques of innovation in AEV system design. 

  9. analyze, as well as design an optimum architecture for AEV systems, and engineer AEV systems.

Applicants will be considered if they have an excellent academic record with a minimum GPA of 3.0 in a bachelor's degree or higher.  Degree(s) should be in an engineering discipline or a closely related field.  Work experience in industry, government, or academia is highly recommended.  Each applicant must also be reviewed and approved by the department chair/director and the College of Engineering & Science dean's office.

This is a 15-credit (five-course) certificate program. Nine credits (three courses) are required core courses, and six credits (two courses) are electives, which may be chosen from the list below.
