Course Summary

MSc Electric Vehicle Engineering is a specialist postgraduate degree that equips you with the tools and techniques necessary to address challenges associated with the development and implementation of electrification of conventional mobility solutions. The focus of technology related economy is drastically shifting towards electrically or electronically controlled autonomous digital systems, smart communication devices, automation and robotics, controlled remotely via smart technology using green energy resources. The postgraduate programme combines principles from electrics, electronics, control, power, automation and robotics to design, manufacture and test smart mobile vehicles/ devices, powered by green electricity. For various applications, these systems and devices are required to interact with objects, know where the objects are, and be able to perform tasks such as moving the objects to a required new position.Through studying MSc Electric Vehicle Engineering, you will learn knowledge and skills to design, develop and deploy electrification of conventional mobility solutions. This new course addresses the demands of the industry and the rapid shift towards electrically or electronically controlled autonomous digital systems, smart communication devices, automation and robotics, and also machines that are controlled remotely via smart technology using green energy resources.All modules include coursework, for which you will have opportunities to apply your knowledge to engineering projects based on real-life scenarios. The coursework will include analysis and design projects, research reports, group and seminar presentations and a research dissertation project.You will also attend lectures, seminars and tutorials and you will work both individually and in groups.An MSc qualification in electrical vehicle engineering will give you a practical ability as the discipline overlaps with a number of engineering professions (i.e. automation and robotics, mechatronics, batteries, mechanical and automotive engineering). There are many career paths available, ranging from hard-core engineering to consultancy, once you have completed this course.Many graduates choose to pursue a professional high-flying career in the expansive engineering sector, in roles such as consultants, designers, field engineers, project managers or senior managers.

Modules

This module develops your knowledge and understanding of industrial and mobile robots, including other key components and software which make up robotic systems; and provides you with knowledge of a wide range of topics in the field of robotics, including the development of robots in the context of industrial applications and mobile robots.
