This bespoke course further develops your understanding of powertrain engineering, mathematical methods and modelling. In addition, individual and group projects will provide you with the opportunities to undertake industry-relevant research.

Future careers:

– Research and development engineer – Pit crew – Vehicle designer – Production or test engineer – Technical representative – OEM (original equipment manufacturer) rep/consultant

There is also an option to select between modules in aerodynamics and racing car design, or motorsport management and performance, to enhance your understanding of this dynamic and technologically advanced field.

We invite guest speakers from companies such as Ricardo, the Institute of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) and other industry specialists to speak to our students. Students also take part in educational trips to Ricardo, the University of Brighton and other leading organisations, which provide further industry exposure to state-of-the-art design, manufacturing, and wind-tunnel testing facilities.

Graduates of this course have gone on to work in Formula 1, as research and development engineers or pit-crew; as vehicle designers with major manufacturers such as Aston Martin, Ford, Jaguar, Ricardo and Land Rover; or into the world of motorsport with a variety of racing teams.

I like how motorsport engineering has a bit of everything. The course itself is coursework-focused which means that you can carry out your own independent research in areas that interest you.”
