Brunel's Automotive and Motorsport Engineering MSc 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.
Students will study all aspects of the design, development and construction of competition vehicles including aerodynamics, materials, structural analysis, IC engines and vehicle systems and how to use tools like computational modelling, simulation and data analysis to assess performance, strength, costs and safety.
Students also develop managerial skills integral to race team operations such as race planning, vehicle testing, marketing concepts, leadership, risk management and employment.
Students' education will profit from the research done at Brunel's Centre for Advanced Powertrain and Fuels (CAPF), one of the largest and most active engine research groups in the UK.
There's a group project to design a single seater racing vehicle that students will 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; students work to a schedule and budget and are expected to promote their team image through marketing and sponsorship.
Throughout their studies, students will have use of Brunel University London's state-of-the-art laboratory facilities, which comprise their motorsport workshop, and 24-hour access to industry standard specialist software for engineering design at dedicated computer clusters on campus, so students will 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. A Brunel University London postgraduate engineering degree will give graduates the technical and managerial skills to meet the challenges presented by the industry’s constant drive for improvement and set them apart in the eyes of prospective employers.
The programme is accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE), which means this degree will put graduates on course to gain Chartered Engineer (CEng) status in the UK.
