Master of Engineering - International Automotive Engineering

Course Details

Designed to meet the needs of the global automotive industry, with the Master of Engineering (International Automotive Engineering) youll develop the skills to take a leading role in automotive engineering design, control systems, numerical simulations, manufacturing and testing using contemporary engineering methods and computational and experimental tools. During your studies, you will have the flexibility to specialise in either advanced automotive design and development or automotive manufacturing. Youll use advanced computer-aided engineering software such as LS-DYNA and gain hands-on experience in several state-of-the-art experimental facilities, including the full-scale Vehicle Wind Tunnel, Driverless Vehicles Lab, Green Engines Research Laboratory and Vehicle NVH Laboratory. The Master of Engineering (International Automotive Engineering) also promotes hands-on practice by incorporating a project that will enable you to apply the learned technologies to a real-world automotive system application. This degree focuses on sustainable design and manufacturing practices based on the entire lifecycle (from cradle to grave) of vehicles. This incorporates the design for disposal and recycle, disassembly, lifecycle assessment, alternative fuels and powertrains and light structures. Youll develop a comprehensive understanding of the product lifecycle and systems design of modern automobiles and associated technologies. This understanding is developed through project-based learning involving real-life problems in cooperation with industry both locally and internationally.
