Overview
The car industry has seen rapid changes in how vehicles are designed: whilst the trend is to use digital technologies to create visuals, every great car design begins with an idea on paper.
This Car Design for 15 - 17 Year Olds course is an opportunity to explore the creative process of car design away from a screen, develop your drawing skills and thinking around car design.
You’ll build confidence in getting your ideas down on paper and develop fundamental design skills, taking your ideas from sketches into perspective drawings that could be used by 3D modellers in the design process of designing a new car.
This course at Nottingham Trent University is ideal if you’re interested in cars and how they are designed, or are thinking of further studies in product design, industrial design, or transport design.
