44 Automotive Engineering Master's Degree Programs

Electrical Vehicle Engineering (EVE) is an international master’s degree conveying in-depth knowledge in electric components technologies and their integration in electric vehicles.

The Master in Transportation and Car Design requires creative and technical skills, in order to combine engineering, ergonomics and marketing to develop innovative ideas for transportation. The program covers the entire design process, with study projects in collaboration with leading automotive companies, involving professional designers from top car brands.

The education and training of students attending the study programme Automotive Production is focused on the preparation of experts in the creation of new products, the design of production processes, management of the production of automobiles and their components. 

The Master's in Automotive Engineering is an official degree approved by the Council of Ministers that has been taught since the 2013/14 academic year. It is an evolution of the Master in Technologies and Processes of the Automotive Industry, taught from the academic year 2008/09 to 2012/13.

Current changes in the automotive sector were the precursor of the Master´s Program in Automotive Engineering. This master offers a deep insight in automotive technologies. The aim of the master’s degree is to achieve a profile of a high-qualified technician in the technologies related to this sector. For instance: electricity and electronics, knowledge of ergonomics and the interaction between the users and the vehicle, new materials and processing techniques, comfort, navigation systems, applied control systems, without forgetting the aspects related to propulsion systems, conventional or new (electric, with fuel cell), or the state-of-the-art calculation, design, and experimental tools. The learning methodology is based on projects where the practical work requests planning and organization tasks such as the ones of real industrial project. Students get familiar with the project management, which is compulsory for any engineer.

The Curriculum in Advanced Motorcycle Engineering is part of the Master’s Degree Course in Advanced Automotive Engineering (AAE).  It aims to train real experts in the design and development of high-tech motorcycles, with a focus on electronic engineering, endothermic powertrains, and industrial design.

Mechanical engineers are involved in the design and manufacture of products and systems that affect us all, with expertise relevant to many organisations. You'll learn general mechanical engineering, and gain highly sought-after simulation skills and an understanding of business and project management. Specialist subjects include applied mechanics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics and electronics.

This one-year full-time programme aims to train highly qualified professionals in race engineering, through a variety of teaching activities. The course includes both theoretical and practical teaching, as well as workshops, and a 6-month internship in industry. Thanks to the partnerships with VI-Grade, ASC (Automotive Safety Centre), Skydrive, and MSC Software, among others, students have a wealth of opportunities to develop their knowledge and skill in managing all aspects of racing cars.
