Automotive Mechatronics MSc

**Automotive mechatronics is a rapidly growing field, driven by the increasing complexity of modern vehicles and the need to improve fuel efficiency, emissions, and safety. As a life-cycle activity, it involves the multidisciplinary integration of automotive mechanical and electronic systems, including sensors, actuators, microcontrollers, and other components, to create intelligent and responsive systems that can adapt to changing conditions.**<br/><br/>During the Automotive Mechatronics MSc, you will gain skills across automotive-specific mechanics, electronics, communication, advanced control and modelling, preparing you to respond to the clear demand in the sector for graduates with advanced skills and education in this specialised field.<br/><br/>**Who is it for?**<br/>The Automotive Mechatronics MSc is a recently established course, developed to respond to the clear demand in the sector for graduates with advanced skills and education in this specialised field. The significant increase in the application of mechatronics has created an industry need for this Masters degree. This course is designed for students with a solid engineering, mathematics or applied science undergraduate degree, who want to strive for a skill set which combines electrical, mechanical, digital control systems and physical system modelling.<br/><br/>**Why this course?**<br/>We have extensive strategic links with the automotive industry and key players in the forefront of automotive research and development. This high level of engagement with industry through short courses, consultancy and research makes our graduates some of the most desirable in the UK and abroad for companies to recruit.<br/><br/>We are well located for visiting students from all over the world, and offers a range of library and support facilities to support your studies.<br/><br/>**Accreditation**<br/>The Automotive Mechatronics MSc is accredited by:<br/>- The Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE)<br/><br/><br/>- Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET)<br/><br/><br/>**Informed by Industry**<br/>The Automotive Mechatronics MSc is directed by an Industrial Advisory Panel comprising senior engineers from the automotive sector. This maintains course relevancy and ensures that graduates are equipped with the skills and knowledge required by leading employers. You will have the opportunity to meet this panel and present your individual research project to them at an annual event held in July.
