The course primarily teaches model-based development using MATLAB, Simulink, and Stateflow, focusing on how to design, simulate, and validate automotive control systems. You’ll learn how to convert real-world system requirements into mathematical models, build dynamic simulations, and implement logic using state machines. A strong emphasis is placed on developing industry-relevant applications such as Battery Management Systems (BMS), motor control, and vehicle dynamics.
In addition, the course covers the complete Model-Based Development (MBD) lifecycle, including requirement-based modeling, traceability, and safety practices aligned with ISO 26262. It also trains you in industry-standard testing methods like MiL, SiL, PiL, HiL, and ViL, along with hands-on experience in debugging, optimization, and automatic code generation. Overall, the focus is on building practical skills that prepare you for real-world automotive projects and technical interviews.
You will also gain exposure to calibration techniques, controller tuning, data analysis, and model optimization for performance improvement. The course introduces best practices followed in automotive companies, including version control, documentation standards, and reusable model architecture design. By the end, you will be confident in handling complex system-level problems and delivering production-ready, scalable engineering solutions. Additionally, you will explore emerging automotive technologies and industry trends shaping next-generation intelligent and connected vehicle systems.
