What is Transport Design? A Transport Design degree will give you the
skills and understanding to work as a designer in any transportation industry.
On a typical course you will learn both 2-D and 3-D design skills, as well as
how to use physical and virtual tools to create innovative transport designs.
You will also learn the theory and analysis needed to underpin successful design
work, plus gain an understanding of engineering and ergonomic requirements for
successful transport designs.
You should expect to be able to undertake collaborative projects with the
automotive industry as well as apply for an industrial placement (internship) in
the latter part of your course.
In your final year you will work on substantial design projects that will allow
you to integrate your knowledge and skills and to present yourself at our
prestigious Degree Show.
This route will give you the skills and understanding to work as an industrial
designer for a manufacturing industry.
What skills do students need? You will need skills in visualising and
drawing plus the potential to be skilled in the manipulation of 3-D forms.
Creativity is essential whilst a strong interest in 3-D design and the will to
succeed in a competitive environment will also be advantageous.
