Here is a selection of UVic theses and dissertations going back through the years, dealing with hybrid and alternative vehicles. By no coincidence, UVic is host to the UVic Formula Hybrid Team , the Institute for Integrated Energy Systems,  and the Sustainable Systems Design Laboratory. Sustainable transportation is one of the many engineering areas we focus on here at UVic.

*UVic’s open access repository, UVicspace, makes worldwide knowledge mobilization possible. Through this platform, researchers at any institution have access to dissertations (and theses and graduate projects) published by our graduate students. This also makes works available to the interested layperson, who may be engaged in learning more about the research being done at UVic, with no paywall. UVic’s graduate students are doing valuable research every day – but sometimes it goes unsung. Our goal with this series is to shine a light on our students by featuring excellence, one achievement at a time.
