    Hi! Happy Christmas to all of you ;)

    So I know that car mechanic is connected with engineering however when I was reading engineering courses content, there is nothing about cars or engine... can anyone explain me which course should I start (name of the course)?

    I want to be car mechanic but I also want to be able to build my own engines, constructions and technologies.

    any help appreciated
