at World University of Design India

Mobility has always been a basic human need. The transportation design programs at WUD focuses not only on automotive and car design but also on transportation systems across land, water, air or even space; which enhance mobility for humans and commodities.

The program considers transportation products in the context of present day economic and social needs, success or failure of existing systems and devices, and propositions for future transport solutions. It seeks to cover practical problem-solving as also solutions relevant to our future society and the environment. While topics like Emerging Technologies, Composites, Aerodynamics, Fluid Dynamics, Automobile engineering, Automotive Modeling, Transportation for Specific Needs, Vehicle Packaging Design and Use of Automotive Clay & GFRP will equip them with relevant knowledge, diverse practical projects will help students link their developmental skills, with knowledge and understanding.

The undergraduate course will prepare the student with a strong base in the theories of performance, the nuances of the classical, folk and contemporary arts, the rudiments of production and presentation along with rigorous insight. They will be exposed to the practical and theoretical practices of performance and introduced to literary, historical, traditional and cultural explorations of performing arts across cultures.
