**Why choose this course**
Run by internationally recognised academics, our BEng and MEng Automotive Engineering courses give you the expertise needed to become a professional engineer in the automotive industry, or equally provide you with the skillset to take up a career in motorsport.
You’ll have access to industry-standard software and equipment, and the prestigious Formula Student competition is a central part of the course.
You may also choose to take a Professional Training placement at major companies such as McLaren, Williams F1 and Rolls-Royce. The University boasts excellent employment results, too. According to the Graduate Outcomes survey 2020, 96 per cent of our graduates are in work or further education.
**What you will study**
Our unique courses explore new and emerging sustainable automotive technologies, such as electric vehicles.
Throughout your studies, you’ll learn to use state-of-the-art tools for vehicle analysis and development, such as computer-aided design, finite element method, fluid dynamics and vehicle dynamics software.
You’ll also participate in Formula Student – Europe’s most established student motorsport competition. This is a valuable opportunity to apply your knowledge and gain hands-on experience.
You can apply to study for either a BEng (Bachelor of Engineering) or MEng (Master of Engineering). The MEng builds on the BEng course with a masters year and is a direct route to a masters qualification.
Depending on your progress, you may have the option to switch to a BEng or MEng during your studies.
