Our BA/BSc (Hons) Automotive & Transport Design (with Integrated Foundation Year and Professional Practice Year) is a five year degree programme, including a foundation year to help develop your creativity before you embark on year one of a degree. Your fourth academic year would then include a year in industry placement.<br/><br/>Are you keen to drive the conversation and design transport solutions for the future? Our new BSc (Hons) Automotive and Transport Design degree at UCA Canterbury will help you do just that.<br/><br/>The automotive and transportation industry is undergoing massive change driven by the twin effects of a dire need to decarbonise in response to the climate emergency, and a social and cultural change in attitudes to car ownership and use, as well as public transport. Through this course, you’ll be poised to lead design thinking and policy in this sector, enabling positive disruption and innovation to thrive, firmly focused on the human, spatial, tactile, and material experiences of the future of transportation.<br/><br/>To effectively create your concepts and develop your skills and design practice, you’ll have access to the amazing facilities at UCA Canterbury, including advanced forms of fabrication and testing, the latest 3D scanning and VR technology, and a suite of traditional craft-based workshops, photography studios, and print facilities. You will have the freedom to establish your own unique specialisms, such as advanced materials, or personal mobility systems, and you will develop your own highly individualised design identity and style.<br/><br/>Along the way you’ll be supported by our academic team and extensive industry links and enjoy collaborative opportunities across the School of Architecture & Design.
