  05Automotive Engineering and Technology 
   Automotive Engineering and Technology is the study of planning, designing, developing, producing and maintaining motor vehicles including earth moving equipment, motor cycles and small engines. Skills learned include: designing and developing motor vehicles, earth moving equipment, small engines and their components, interpreting and applying standards to the design of motor vehicles and components, testing and evaluating vehicle performance and safety, diagnosing faults in, servicing and repairing automotive systems and components, utilising the structural properties of materials for vehicle building. The main purpose of this field of study is to develop an understanding of the theory and practice of the design, production and functioning of motor vehicles, vehicle body building, repair, painting and trimming and maintaining and repairing motor vehicles, earth moving plant, motor cycles and small engines. It also involves developing an ability to organise, cost and complete the tasks required in the design, construction and maintenance of motor vehicles.
