What types of assessments will I have in Motorsport and Automotive Performance Engineering courses?

We try to create as many practical opportunities as possible, however, we also need you to remember that the skills in practical work are not assessed, engineering is about applying a combination of practical, scientific, and mathematical skills to develop and optimise race cars. Therefore, we use as much portfolio and report-based assessment as possible to showcase your skills. We do have some exams of course, but we have gone to great effort to make our assessments as realistic to real life as possible.

If you have any other enquiries relating to this you can contact the Motorsport and Automotive Performance Engineering Team to discuss, their contact details can be found at the bottom of the specific course page here.

You can also chat with our staff directly every Wednesday from 2 pm - 4 pm and periodically throughout the working week.

Alternatively, chat with our current students who will be able to share this information with you and any other course-related queries.

Or book onto one of our Open Days or Course Advice Days to find out more and speak with the team.

At the University of Bolton, we understand our students have different requirements and pride ourselves on the positive and supportive learning environment we provide. Being voted No. 1 for Student Satisfaction for the past three years (Complete University Guide, North West) is a testament to our approach.

We are proud of our work on-campus to ensure our students can enjoy #UniAsItShouldBe, COVID-secure.
