About this course
Automotive engineering is one of the most rapidly evolving areas of engineering practice. The shift from internal combustion to electric powertrains, the development of autonomous driving systems, and the pressure to reduce the carbon footprint of personal transport are reshaping the technical skills the industry needs and the careers it offers. An automotive engineering degree prepares you for that changing landscape, combining rigorous engineering fundamentals with specialist knowledge of vehicle systems and the emerging technologies that are transforming them. At the University of Brighton, the four-year full-time programme includes a foundation year, which provides a thorough grounding in engineering mathematics, physical science and technical skills for students who need additional preparation before beginning the full degree. You will study vehicle dynamics, powertrain engineering
