The Institute of Automotive Engineering is part of the Department of Engineering. True to its motto “Dynamics starts in the head”, learning, teaching and research take place in a practical and international context. One good example of this is the ‘joanneum racing graz’ project which is carried out as part of the Formula Student competition.
Research fields
Our R&D activities follow a three-pronged approach: analysis and calculation, numerical simulation and measurement, testing and experiments. Research is focused on the overall vehicle. The Institute is equipped with state-of-the-art testing facilities and cutting edge design and simulation tools.
Collaboration opportunities
- Collaboration with partners in research contracts or funded research projects
- Exploration of research questions as part of Bachelor’s and Master’s theses
