Motorsport Engineering,BEng (Hons)

Our motorsport engineering degree will help you become a design engineer for the motorsport industry. And we work with the local and global motorsport industry to shape course content.

The course combines theory with practical, hands-on experience, to give you a well-rounded introduction to motorsport. Our research facilities are also your learning spaces. You’ll have full access to these, whenever you need them. And with a focus on electric vehicles, you’ll be prepared for the future of work in this profession.

The course has 2 pathways: BEng and MEng. Whichever you pick, you’ll be on your way to receiving industry accreditation, improving your future job prospects and unlocking opportunities for postgraduate study. At the end of the BEng course, you can choose to study for an extra year to gain the MEng qualification.

This course is your chance to join IMechE Monitored Professional Development Scheme before you finish the course.

Both BEng and MEng courses lead to professional accreditation. Completing the BEng meets the academic requirements for becoming an Incorporated Engineer, and partly meets the academic requirements for becoming a Chartered Engineer. Completing the MEng fully meets the academic requirements for Chartered Engineer status.

Our graduates go on to have successful careers in the motorsport industry. They work for big names including Ferrari, Williams Advanced Engineering, Tuthill Porsche, plus many Formula One and Formula E teams.

You’ll also have the option of studying motorsport engineering, or a similar discipline, at a higher level. The BEng can lead to MSc opportunities, and both the MEng and MSc open up PhD routes.
