BA Transport Design

Objectives Throughout the course, design projects form the core of your studies and cover a wide range of topics, allowing you to practise the skills and knowledge you have acquired from associated modules. Live projects have involved companies such as Jaguar, Nissan, Ford, Land Rover, TVR and MG Rover. While a significant proportion of the course is orientated towards automotive design, projects also allow for a wider interpretation of transport design and have included public transport, trucks, motorcycles, boats and bikes as well as more conceptual approaches towards transport issues of the future.
