The aim of this course is to equip you with the skills required of a designer in the automotive industry.
It contains elements of two and three-dimensional design and provides the opportunity to apply CAD to automotive design project work.
You will have the option of working on a project set by the automotive industry and to develop a personal project of your own.
In addition, you will study contextual aspects of the automotive design process so that you are able to fully appreciate the role of the automotive designer.
Career options can include being an automotive design practitioner in industry or a freelance designer.
Contents
The first term will be spent achieving a grounding in the basics of automotive design. Vehicle packaging, automotive modelling, and the business of the automotive industry are all covered in lectures, seminars and studio classes within the first three months. We have an ongoing programme of visiting lectures delivered by senior figures in automotive design, automotive journalism and business.
The second term will involve further skill developments plus a 'live' design project run in conjunction with the automotive industry. Our recent collaborators include PSA (Peugeot-Citroen), Ford and Renault. During this exciting project you will learn to work in teams to achieve a design output for demanding clients.
During the third term you will undertake more design projects and start researching for your MA major project. Your major project takes up the whole of the final term, leading up to the industry-sponsored MA Degree Show at the end of the year.
