Department of Automobile and Transportation Design
The ATD department has a vison for contributing to ever changing landscape of automobile design of today and future. Being clustered within the School of Industrial Design, along with other rich disciplines of Design, sets aside for multi-disciplinary learning outcomes and contributions to society and human lifestyle.
The pedagogy DNA focuses to sensitize and channelize the passionate energy of the young learners, to the world of appreciation of form and aesthetic values of vehicle design, through a rigorous hands-on approach, and equip them to be able to generate exhilarating concepts that is appropriate to the running trends of automotive design. The pedagogy goes one step ahead in addressing one of the key challenges of today, of conjoining the trending mobility technologies with styling skills, aimed at reimagining and creating innovative mobility solutions in contemporary world, pushing the students to think as the new creative entrepreneurs.
The course focuses on all pertinent automobile design specific skills at very early stage in the programme.
Project based learning allows for learning from real life scenarios, exposure to interdisciplinary challenges, system design and design management.
Strong hands on learning approach on automotive design processes – clay modeling, sketching, digital sketching and rendering, surface modeling, prototyping techniques, CMF.
Plethora of choices to experiment with on prototyping methods and materials, by combining strength of allied design studio facilities with automotive clay studio.
State of the art facilities, that support the ATD curriculum – the Cintiq studio, Clay studio, comprehensive Class A surface modeling techniques, facilitation and digital realization facilities, access to workshops of the wood, metal, 3D printing and paint studio.
– Vehicle Exterior Design
– Vehicle Interior Design
– Digital Sculpting
– Concept Modelling
– Class-A Modelling

The Automobile and Transportation Design course will provide the students to pursue exciting careers such as Car Designer (Exterior), Car Designer (Interior), Two Wheeler Designer, Commercial Vehicle Designer, Digital Modeler, CMF Designer. The aim of the programme is to prepare the students to be the future leaders – forming a new generation of designers who have both the skill set and mind-set to operate as strategic leaders with a broad range of abilities and insight about their own ‘point-of-impact’ on an increasingly diverse industry. The programme combines theoretical and creative workshops. The majority of graduates of the programme will work in the design departments of vehicle manufacturers worldwide.
The learning model at UID is incubated to create and adapt to an appropriate environment of learning that facilitates our students with new experiences. We make sure our learning model engages the learner into new dimensions of work. This model provides an environment for interactive student engagement and enhances the system thinking ability.
At UID, we believe that the experiential knowledge gained while developing and implementing this unique learning model is transferable to other disciplines as well.

The Department organizes workshops at regular intervals that enlightens an aspiring transportation designer, with industry practices and processes and professional deliverables in a design studio. This is a platform for the students to interact with professionals and work along, be guided on honing the skills to deliver at professional level. The student in process gains knowledge on inner strengths and presentation techniques as well in the journey. Eminent designers of Two wheeler design, four wheeler design have interacted so far with the students, imparting incredible exposure through intense sessions that continue to over three days at least. There is a lot of excitement, fun and learning added in the process.
