📖Program Curriculum
This engineering degree course focuses on sustainable development future low-emission technologies and urban transportation. You can expect to adapt theoretical principles to solve real-world engineering problems very early on in your university career. After all that’s what engineering is all about.
At the start you'll study modules largely common with the IMechE accredited BEng Mechanical Engineering. This is so you gain a fundamental understanding of Vehicle Engineering core subjects. Over the second and third we’ll get more specific and you’ll take an active role in our IMechE Formula Student Team LSBU’s Shell ECO challenge vehicle and other group and individual projects specific to Vehicle Engineering.
Methods of assessment for this course overall: 60% coursework.
