Teaching and Learning Philosophy<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The foundations of Automotive Engineering in Leiria Polytechnic were set in three main areas: Mechanical Engineering; Electrical Engineering and Management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The entire curricular plan and subject programs were built on a \u201chands on\u201d learning philosophy combined with a solid theoretical background support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All the conventional automotive technologies are addressed side-by-side with state-of-the-art technologies in the field of land mobility. This is only possible in close collaboration with international mobility and companies dedicated to the automotive aftermarket that operate at national level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Practical learning<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Automotive Laboratories in Leiria Polytechnic were grouped altogether in a single building forming the biggest and most well-equipped laboratory dedicated to land mobility in Portuguese Polytechnic and University institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These laboratories provide the necessary support for the teaching and learning philosophy that made this graduation the reference in this field among Portuguese Polytechnics and Universities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Objectives<\/h2>\n
Programme<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

The programme aims to ensure the formation of polyvalent graduates with high scientific, technical, ethical and professional qualification, enabling them to face the diversity of requests made by the automotive sector and will enable them to perform specialized technical functions in companies and entities in that sector of activity, whether services, Commercial or industrial, complemented with cultural, social and ethical values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The learning objectives respect the methodologies approved by other relevant academia. Namely, an emphasis has been given to the practical character of the curricular units (UC\u2019s) as opposed to a lecture based approach. Moreover, the use of practical laboratory assignments in various UC\u2019s was promoted, as a tool for acquiring skills to apply knowledge, problem solving, gathering information and making judgments, as well as
development of communication and team work skills.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
