Originally created with Ford Motor Company and Jaguar Land Rover, the Automotive Engineering Master of Science will provide students with the knowledge and technical expertise for a career in the fast-paced automotive sector of today. Students will specialise in subjects that are relevant to a rapidly changing industry and the future of ground transportation to provide them with solid expertise for their future career. The programme will build on to students' existing engineering skills and enhance their understanding of the latest automotive technologies, including the development of the next generation of vehicles that feature new hardware, software, autonomy and electrification. Practical activities are integral to the course, for example, by spending time at HORIBA MIRA proving ground, students will learn how to collect and analyse vehicle handling, off-road dynamics, noise measurement, braking performance and wet weather driving data. The department has a strong and growing research programme with world-class activities and facilities. Research topics include the development of new design methodologies for hybrid powertrains, vehicle electrification and autonomy, virtual vehicle integration and development, and vehicle aerodynamics simulation and testing. Students will have the opportunity to contribute to these research areas through their project module.
