Automotive companies are prioritizing the development of innovative materials to address evolving policies, rising demand, and the need for enhanced fuel efficiency, lighter vehicles, and compliance with environmental regulations, all while delivering value to customers. The Automotive Materials field is increasingly vital, ensuring vehicles maintain appearance, functionality, safety, and affordability.This Loughborough University degree integrates core materials engineering with automotive-specific training, including modules co-taught by the Department of Aeronautical and Automotive Engineering. Students explore the scientific, engineering, and design aspects of materials, from fundamentals to advanced topics, using state-of-the-art labs and learning from world-leading academics. In the third year, a supervised research project offers industry collaboration opportunities. The course, backed by major companies like Jaguar Land Rover and Ford, prepares graduates for careers in this dynamic sector. The MEng extends the BEng by providing advanced technical and management studies in years three and four, with possible transfers based on progression criteria. Assessment combines coursework and exams (approximately 40/60 ratio), plus presentations, and the program holds accreditation from the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining.
