Course abstract
The aim of the course is to learn the basics of organization and management of automotive technical maintenance workshop. The students learn the principles of storage and rationing of service materials, the essence of the assessment of the technical condition of cars and their components, as well as the use of modern diagnostic equipment for determining the parameters of the car's operation. In-depth study of the design methodology of a vehicle maintenance company. They get acquainted with the principles of choice and calculation of technological planning of motor transport and service companies. The acquired knowledge can be used in the practical design of a road transport company.
