YEAR 1 (FOUNDATION YEAR)
The foundation year will provide a grounding for students in all aspects of Engineering and Design in order to prepare them for further years of study.
MODULES
- Analytical Methods for Engineering
- Design and Technology
- Mechanical Science
- Electrical and Electronic Science
- The Skills You Need
- Contextual Studies
YEAR 2 (LEVEL 4)
The vast majority of the key knowledge is reviewed and expanded at this stage. All lectures are followed by tutorials and practicals/demonstrations to ensure that you have fully assimilated the information.
MODULES
- Mechanical Science
- Electrical Science
- Laboratory Methods and Materials
- Engineering Mathematics
- Introduction to Engineering Design & Practice
Plus an optional module from the following:
- Performance Car Systems
- Mechanical Systems
YEAR 3 (LEVEL 5)
At this level, the teaching team starts to encourage the students to work and learn by themselves. We are not only preparing you to be a knowledgeable practitioner, we are preparing you to become a reliable and independent problem solver.
MODULES
- Business & Research Development
- Internal Combustion Engine: Theory and Technology
- Automotive Design
- Further Engineering Mathematics
- Engineering and Mechanism Dynamics & Engineering Design
- Structures, Failure Analysis & FEA
YEAR 4 (LEVEL 6)
This is the final year of the bachelor degree. The first semester is generally focussing on developing specific automotive knowledge. Your individual project will allow you to specialise further into a field of your choice. At the end of this, you will be a graduate engineer ready for industry.
MODULES
- Performance Car Chassis, Engines & Powertrain
- Vibration Analysis & Structures
- Aerodynamics & CFD
- Employability & Entrepreneurship
- Final Year Project (individual dissertation)
