Course summary
UWTSD ranked 2nd in the UK for student satisfaction in Mechanical Engineering – Complete University Guide 2023.The next decade promises to be extremely exciting with significant changes expected in the automotive industry. The move from the internal combustion engine towards hybrid and electrical powertrains means that new engineering skills are required. The university is working closely with the Automotive industry to provide students with the knowledge and passion for performance and practical mainstream automotive vehicles.The University has recently invested heavily in its engineering facilities and new campus. As a student in the Automotive Engineering programme, you will have access to our specific automotive workshops, engine diagnostic laboratories, chassis dynamometers, hybrid/electric powertrain facilities and our extensive fabrication and machining facilities.The course will develop fundamental physics and engineering skills in a contextualised way through the development of the car, its suspension, ride, handling and NVH (Noise Vibration and Harshness). Importance is given to the development of the powertrain as we move to sustainable fuels and advanced battery technologies.Within many of the modules, the course considers the environmental aspects of design and technology which are transferable to a broad range of employment opportunities. The course is supported by extracurricular opportunities to apply the theoretical knowledge learnt in the modules to real-life automotive applications.The following Bachelor’s degrees have been accredited as meeting the academic requirement, in part, for Chartered Engineer (CEng in Part) registration for the cohort intakes from 2015 up to, and including 2023: BEng(Hons) Automotive Engineering (Full Time 3 Years; EngC ref 15956)
