Our training courses and workshops have been delivered around the globe to both academia and industry. Developed by Dr. Horizon Gitano-Briggs, all course materials draw heavily on years of practical experience in automotive engineering, instrumentation, control systems, and engine development.
Seminars involve theoretical foundations, modeling, calculation tools, and live practical demonstrations. Exercises can be performed at your facility using our transportable laboratory equipment or scheduled at the Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) Engine Laboratory.
Available for small per-head sessions or full corporate/academic team flat rates.
