For the first three years, you will study alongside those on the BEng (Hons) Automotive Engineering course. This will give you the opportunity to learn fundamental engineering principles, further develop your knowledge and skills and gain an appreciation for concepts relevant to automotive engineering. In your fourth year, your additional year of study, you will apply what you’ve already learned on a substantial project. Year One * Mathematics for Engineers * Vehicle Electrical and Electronic Systems * Design and Manufacture * Professional Practice for Engineers * Engineering Mechanics 1 * Thermofluids for Engineers Year Two * Computational Techniques for Analysis * Engineering Management and Business Constraints * Engineering Mechanics 2 * Engineering Materials Science * Manufacturing * Design for Automotive Engineers * Vehicle Control Systems Year Three * Individual Project * Finite Element Analysis * Manufacturing Systems and Management * Vehicle Dynamics and Structures * Research Methods for Engineers * Aerodynamics and Computational Fluid Dynamics * Vehicle and Engine Technology Year Four * Integrative group project – 40 credits * Vehicle power trains and systems * Business and risk management Optional modules include: * Hybrid vehicle technologies * Further engineering materials* * Fatigue and fracture* * Further finite element analysis* * Further computational fluid dynamics* * Heat transfer and combustion* * Lean manufacture* The above information is a sample module description for illustrative purposes. Modules and module content may change from time to time. *10 credit module
