Overview
This course will allow you to acquire a firm foundation in engineering science as it is applied to automobile design, development and manufacture, with considerable emphasis given to the use of modern analytical and Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) methods.
This course will allow you to acquire a firm foundation in engineering science as it is applied to automobile design, development and manufacture, with considerable emphasis given to the use of modern analytical and Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) methods.
The strong automotive focus continues with the teaching of vehicle design, ultimately leading to the complete design of a vehicle and the introduction of a broad range of automotive modules. The course is designed to develop engineers with strong analytical, modelling, experimental and design ability, but also with excellent communication and team working skills.
