Master of Science - Automotive Engineering

The MSc Automotive Engineering programme is designed to develop highly skilled engineers capable of working across a range of roles and organisations within the automotive sector. It focuses on equipping students with the knowledge and practical abilities required to apply modern engineering tools and technologies to real-world challenges.

The course emphasises the development of innovative engineering solutions to issues such as fuel efficiency, emissions reduction, vehicle performance, and stability. It also explores the broader context of sustainability and climate change, alongside the application of advanced control techniques through research-led modules focused on powertrain systems and vehicle engineering.

Students are encouraged to develop creative thinking and leadership skills, while engaging in independent study to deepen their understanding and expand their technical expertise. The programme includes a substantial Master’s project, enabling students to apply their learning to industry-relevant problems. Many of these projects have been presented at industry events and have, in some cases, progressed into doctoral-level research.

Overall, the course prepares graduates for professional roles in automotive engineering by combining research-informed teaching with practical problem-solving and industry engagement.
