Automobile Engineering is from Anna University conducting B.E Mechanical Engineering Sandwich containing semester V examination subject. In this article, we are glad to provide the syllabus of the Automobile Engineering.
We aim to provide the unit-wise syllabus for the students to get help with their preparation for the examination. With the assistance of the syllabus, you can able to learn before everyone else. You will get a good grip on the syllabus to make your preparation strategies. We also add appropriate textbooks and references from the expert faculty regarding the subject code CME380 – Automobile Engineering Syllabus. Hope this information is useful. Kindly share it with your classmates if you like it.
If you want to know more about the B.E Mechanical Engineering Sandwich syllabus connected to an affiliated institution’s four-year undergraduate degree program. We provide you with a detailed Year-wise, semester-wise, and Subject-wise syllabus in the following link B.E Mechanical Engineering Sandwich Syllabus Regulation 2021 Anna University.
