The BEng Automotive Engineering courses focus on new and emerging sustainable automotive technologies (such as electric vehicles). Throughout your course, you will have the opportunity to use state-of-the-art design and development tools such as computer aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) methods, applying these to vehicle development. As an integral part of your course you will get involved in Formula Student – Europe’s most established student motorsport competition, in which Surrey has successfully competed for many years. This will give you a valuable opportunity to apply your knowledge to real-life problems and gain hands-on, practical experience. our BEng Automotive Engineering courses will give you the specialised expertise you need to become a professional engineer in the automotive industry, or equally provide you with the right skill set to take up a career in motorsport. Our graduate employment record is truly outstanding. The University of Surrey is consistently at, or very close to, the top of the league table for graduate employment. Most of our graduates proceed directly to employment in an engineering profession. Typical careers span a wide range of areas including professional automotive engineering, general engineering and manufacturing. Employers include some of the most famous names in engineering, aerospace, energy, telecommunications and research. A significant number of students continue their education at Surrey and elsewhere. Recent graduates from the automotive and mechanical engineering courses have entered employment in roles such as: Automotive Design Engineer, McLaren Automotive; Graduate Engineer, Tata Steel; Graduate Mechanical Engineer, JCA Engineering; Graduate Systems and Test Engineer, Lockheed Martin UK; Graduate Vehicle Development Engineer, Gordon Murray Design; PVT Engineer, Jaguar Land Rover and Reliability Engineer, ExxonMobil.
