The MSc course consists of nine one-week assessed modules, of which eight are assessed, which take place during October to February, a group design project and an individual thesis project.
Students who excel on the Masters' course have their performance recognised through prizes from our partners and associates presented either on the day of the Motorsport Group Design Presentations or at the Motorsport MSc 'Parc Ferme' Graduation event in the June of the following year.

I chose to study at Cranfield University after hearing about their connections within Formula One and a recommendation from a previous colleague. I knew the Advanced Motorsport Engineering MSc was the right option for me as I liked the course structure and modules that were on offer.
