The MSc Automotive Engineering course provides specialised knowledge of the latest technological developments in automotive applications of mechanical engineering, including internal combustion engines, vehicle dynamics and aerodynamics, industry-standard CAD tools, renewable energy and alternative fuels, finite element and experimental techniques.
Teaching and Assessment
Teaching
The course is taught by staff from the School of Engineering and Mathematical Sciences and some external industrial experts. Teaching methods include lectures, tutorials and seminars. Throughout the programme, teaching and learning strategies are designed to encourage independent self study and teamwork, creativity and critical thinking.
Assessment
Assessment is based on marks obtained throughout the year for courseworks, class tests, and end-of-year examinations. Modules, based on coursework only, are assessed through substantial individually designed courseworks, assignments and small projects. IT skill is assessed through submitted work on CATIA design reports and computational courseworks.
