    Competence objectives of the study unit
    After completing the course, students are expected to have knowledge about the design of production-relevant internal combustion engines. They should master the thermodynamic and combustion technology basics as well as constructive aspects of manufacturing methods, material selection, etc.

    Furthermore, students should also have knowledge about emission formation from different diesel and otto processes and knowledge about the methods to reduce the emissions.
    Prerequisites
    No prerequisites.
