BEng (Hons) Naval Architecture with High Performance Marine Vehicles

University of Strathclyde, United Kingdom
Save

Course Overview

Marine vehicles have developed dramatically in recent years. Lighter, faster, stronger, greener and safer cars are being designed and built using advanced materials and technology combined with creative design engineering.

This course creates designers with all the core skills of ship design, construction, operation and maintenance. They also specialise in the creative design and engineering of high-performance leisure and commercial vehicles, including sailing and power yachts, fast ferries, hydrofoils, hovercraft, fishing boats and future concept designs.

All our courses offer you the chance to take classes in specialist subjects such as high-performance marine Vehicles, marine engineering or ocean engineering.

The opportunity to transfer to the MEng programme is available for BEng students with the appropriate level of academic performance.
