This course gives graduates with a passion for motorsports and high-performance vehicles the advanced, specialist skills and knowledge they need to successfully pursue careers in this dynamic and competitive field of engineering. The course offers three study modes: one year full time, two years full time including a placement year, or 16 months full time including a 4 month internship (Sept-Dec).
You’ll study all aspects of the design, development and construction of competition vehicles such as state-of-the-art powertrain technologies including EV, hybrid and advanced ICs. You'll also learn about vehicle systems and how to use tools like computational modelling, simulation and data analysis to assess performance, strength, costs and safety. You’ll also develop managerial skills integral to race team operations such as race planning, vehicle testing, marketing concepts, leadership, risk management and employment.
There's a group project to design a single seater racing vehicle that you’ll present at the annual Formula Student event at Silverstone, the world’s largest student engineering design competition. This project mimics an actual professional racing team you work to a schedule and budget and are expected to promote your team image through marketing and sponsorship.
Throughout your studies you’ll have use of our state-of-the-art laboratory facilities, which comprise our motorsport workshop, and 24-hour access to industry standard specialist software for engineering design at dedicated computer clusters on campus, so you’ll have the opportunity and equipment to explore ideas and tackle problems.
The only thing faster than a speeding racing car, it seems, is the speed of change in motorsport technology and practice. Your Brunel postgraduate engineering degree will give you the technical and managerial skills to meet the challenges presented by the industry’s constant drive for improvement and set you apart in the eyes of prospective employers.
The programme is accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE), which means your degree will put you on course to gain Chartered Engineer (CEng) status in the UK.
Students need to have a 2:2 (or above) UK Honours degree or equivalent internationally recognised qualification in an engineering (Automotive, Mechanical, Aeronautical, Aerospace) or technology subject. Other degrees in a related subject, including but not limited to civil, electrical, building services, physics and mathematics will be considered and assessed on an individual basis.
