Vehicle Engineer BSc

DegreeBachelor
FieldAutomotive Engineering

A seven-semester undergraduate programme that trains students to understand, design and service vehicle systems across road, rail, air and marine domains. It suits candidates with strong maths and physics backgrounds who want practical engineering skills for vehicle design, production, maintenance and recycling, and who may progress to MSc study.

What you'll study

The curriculum builds from mathematical and physical fundamentals toward applied vehicle engineering and specialisation. Core areas include:

  • Foundations (35 credits): mathematics and physics such as linear algebra, calculus, probability, statistics, general physics, and statics & dynamics.
  • Additional skills (30 credits): project work basics, compulsory and elective courses in major subjects and economics to develop practical and cross-disciplinary capabilities.
  • Advanced courses (25 credits): higher-level engineering skills and modules focused on basics of mobility delivered through practical or theory-based teaching.
  • Specialization (38 credits): options for study concentrated on automotives, vehicle mechatronics, rail vehicles, aircraft, vessels and manufacturing.
  • Thesis work (15 credits): an individual final project to synthesize learning and demonstrate applied competence.

Entry requirements

For BSc entry you need an eligible high school diploma, proof of English language proficiency and success in the programme's admission tests. The university's E-admission pages give detailed deadlines and procedural information. (Note: MSc entry requires an eligible BSc degree.)

Career prospects

Graduates are prepared to take on sub-engineering roles in design, manufacture, operation, testing, maintenance, repair and recycling of vehicles and transport equipment. The degree also provides a direct pathway to MSc-level study in Vehicle Engineering for those aiming at advanced technical or design roles.
