Our course allows you to develop more in-depth knowledge in automotive engineering and combine this with business management skills.
You’ll advance your technical knowledge in areas such as propulsion systems and how they'll influence the future of vehicle engineering. You'll explore the impact of a range of applications and technologies, analysing past failures and predicting future challenges. Using a systems-thinking approach, you’ll look at wider issues affecting the automotive sector including moral, ethical and sustainability.
A topical automotive theme is set at the start of the course and carried through to group projects. This ensures that subject-based units are relevant to professional practice in industry. It also gives you the benefit of a personalised learning pathway.
Alongside engineering studies, you'll learn about business and management in industry, focusing on the automotive sector. This includes resource management, business processes and theory, and change management. All this will help you to develop skills useful for your future career, whatever that might be.
Creating a collaborative and transdisciplinary learning environment is key to our course. We do this through group projects where you'll work with with students across our suite of automotive courses. Our consultancy project also allows you to work on a real engineering management challenge with an industrial partner.
