On the course of automobile engineering, student will study of how to design, how to develop, and how to repair automobile parts. The market demand of knowledge in automobile industry is growing with the expansion and increasing demand for vehicle. By intense to the environmental need of free from pollution and fuel efficiency uses, every engineers also set to a standard of quantities, for example how to build the car Euro efficient.
The qualified engineer in automobile engineering include of development like construction, calculation and testing), priming of work, fabrication and observation of the vehicle function, include the safety and equipped with many accessories that base on the resources and economic intense.
According to the priority of the study, engineer should have engineering activities like developing the body, body design, commercial and special vehicles of design of motors and transmissions.
To be an automobile engineer person should have a BE or technical degree. The educational background able from electrical or mechanical then continue for specialization in automobile engineering in postgraduate level. Diploma holder can take AMIE examination to be at par of the degree holder.
The employment available for automobile engineer will work in automobile industry, in maintenance and service, assembling, or repair and maintenance. Currently Industry need more high qualified post graduate, like must have computer skill to design automobile or use computer to analyze the car condition.
Automobile engineer also required be able to design a car with an attractive appearance but with the body structure and a strong engine but with a cheap price. This condition is caused by strictly automobile market on this world.

Engineering In Ancient World
The invention of efficient tools and basic processes was the necessary first step in the development of engineering. By the time of the Egyptian empires, early machine tools such as the lathe were already in use; metal smelting, metalworking, and casting process had beed developed; and such basic devices as the windless, andless chain, and bellows were widely employeed. The pyramids and other early monumental structures attest to a highly developed knowledge of quarrying and construction techninques.
The Greeks were talented inventors of mechanical devices, and many of their designs prefigure machines developed centuries later. Hero of Alexandria devised two types of heat engines, one for opening the doors of a temple, the other simply a mechanical toy. Hero was the first to study and classify the types of mechanical force, and his categories of simple machines, the lever, wedge, pulley, wheel, and axle, formed the basic of mechanical engineering.
The waterwheel appeared in the 4th century BC. A machine whose power was not provided by men or animals. It may be called the first true prime mover. Two centuries later, the Greek mathematician and inventor Archimedes studied the mechanics of solid bodies immersed in fluids, one of the first scientific studies of natural phenomena.
The Romans, while not so inventive as the Greeks, nevertheles adopted and improved on Greek devices, using them in the construction of the great works, roads, aqueducts, edifices, that marked their empire. Vitruvius's 10-Volume De architectura (1st century AD) was a compendium of Roman engineering practice.
In its inventive abilities ancient China was easily the equal of Greece, but many centuries were to pass before such oriental devices as the windmill and the double piston bellows, and the wheelbarrow reached the Western world.
