Hello Everyone, Welcome to this course I am Mohamed Ashraf, An enthusiastic Automotive Engineer and I will be your instructor for this course. I am a PhD Researcher in the Areas of Autonomous Driving & Electric Vehicle Control at Shanghai Jiao Tong University and I am also working as an Assistant Lecturer at Helwan University in Egypt from which I graduated with honors and ranked the second on my class. I hold a Project Management Certificate from Google and I have done quite a lot of internships in several automotive Companies Like Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Audi, Hyundai and Peugeot. After graduation, I was directly hired by Mercedes-Benz for Commercial vehicles, MCV, in the Aftersales Department as a Service Engineer. During my job there, I had the opportunity to have insight into the latest technology in the Auto Market and to thoroughly understand how the various systems of the vehicle combine and work together starting from the very simple systems to the quite complex ones. This had motivated me to pursue a Master Degree in Vehicle Engineering specifically in the Vehicle Control field. So ,I left my job at Mercedes after I got a full scholarship for Master degree at Shanghai Jiao Tong University  上海交通 大学 (Jiao da)
