Course programme
All of our degrees have a common first year, allowing you to experience a range of subjects before deciding on the course you wish to follow. You will study Mathematics, and the underlying concepts of Electrical, Mechanical, Materials, and Production Engineering. You will undertake laboratory work; and utilise your new production knowledge to build and test a design.
In the second year, you will extend your knowledge of Automotive subjects including Control Systems, Thermodynamics and Fluids, Mechanics, Vibration and Stress Analysis. In addition, you will create design specifications, and become proficient in the use of a 3D CAD package. You will also study Engineering Management and learn the role and responsibilities of a professional engineer.
Following the second academic year, you are encouraged to undertake a placement year in industry, thereby improving your employment prospects and forming part of your record of professional development as an Incorporated or Chartered Engineer.
In your final year you will complete an individual project, extend your specialist automotive knowledge, and learn how to convert an idea into a commercial venture.
