From designing components for high-performance cars, through to working as a trackside team engineer or even designing the next generation of environmentally friendly vehicles.
We’ll give you the chance to develop fundamental skills in automotive engineering, and apply them to real-world scenarios. You could get involved with our racing team, Team HARE, and get hands-on with the design, development and build of a single-seat Formula Student car (or comparable automotive design and build team project).
From your second year onwards you’ll be able to work in a fully equipped automotive laboratory. Expert technicians and tutors will be on hand to guide you through your practical work.
Example modules
• Engineering Communication and Materials • Engine Systems • Automotive Design • Aerodynamics and Computational Fluid Dynamics
Your future
