Electric Vehicle Systems MSc

Our Electric Vehicle Systems MSc degree has been designed to equip you with advanced knowledge of low-carbon electric vehicle systems and advanced battery technologies.

You'll study in-depth the key areas of electronic and electrical engineering in relation to electric vehicle systems. These include power electronics and drives, vehicular communication systems, sustainable power systems, intelligent systems, and embedded systems which contributes to the design of electric vehicle charging infrastructure and converter topologies.

You’ll develop the ability to critically evaluate methodologies, analytical procedures, and research methods in electric vehicle systems; the design of powertrains and battery management systems, intra and inter-vehicular communication systems; sensors and instrumentations for electric vehicles; and energy policies and electricity markets for electric vehicle development and deployment.

During your degree, you'll have access to modern technical facilities including computer, electronics and power and control laboratories, where you'll work on practical laboratory-based exercises. The latest industry-standard engineering software packages are available for you to use in our purpose-built computer laboratories. You'll benefit from guest lectures delivered by industry professionals. You'll participate in conferences and deliver poster presentations on your research work. This allows you to network and exchange ideas with key engineering and technology experts.

Our MSc Electric Vehicle Systems degree is accredited by The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) on behalf of the Engineering Council as meeting the requirements for Further Learning for registration as a Chartered Engineer. This professional body ensures that your degree meets the academic requirement to qualify as a professional engineer.
