Work placements

The first year of the course is designed to provide you with solid foundations, focusing on core design skills, material exploration, and the role of CAD as a visualisation tool. Live projects with Industry give you the opportunity to put these skills into practice and get your first taste of working with clients.

In the second year, you’ll focus on developing specific skills required to work in the transport industry, considering the future of our vehicle interiors and exteriors. You’ll work collaboratively through live projects with industry that will develop your independence and introduce factors like consumer behaviour, emotional design and sustainability.

The third year allows you to specialise, tailoring your Major Project to your target career, putting all the skills developed into practice. Additional projects with industry and competition briefs will provide you with new opportunities to develop stand out portfolio projects. You’ll consider the changing landscape of mobility and your place within it. The third-year culminates in an end-of-year Degree Show, as well as the opportunity to exhibit your work at a national design show.
