Good news! Seven students majoring in Vehicle Engineering (Sino-UK Cooperation) will soon go to prestigious universities in the UK to pursue a master's degree.

The school of Automotive Engineering has recently announced some good news: seven graduates from the Class of 2023 who participated in the "3+1" program have successively received pre-admission notices from prestigious  universities such as the University of Leeds  and the University of Bath in the UK.

In September 2022, seven students from the Class 195-196 of Vehicle engineering, including Fan Hanqi, passed the language exam and professional interview and went to the University of Bolton in the UK to study for the final year of the "3+1" program.

The three years of professional study and practice in Hubei University of Automotive Technology have laid a solid foundation for students to quickly integrate into the study and life of Bolton.

Faced with the changes in the new learning and living environment, different teaching concepts and models, the down-to-earth and diligent attitude of several students has been highly recognized by the teachers of the University of Bolton.

In addition to their busy study schedule, students also share their insights and experiences of overseas study with their junior and senior schoolmates at Hubei University of Automotive Technology through video link.

In the first half of this year, after careful preparation and application, they successively received pre admission notices for master's degree in vehicle engineering from the University of Leeds (ranked 86th in the QS World University Rankings) and the University of Bath (ranked 179th in the QS World University Rankings), and decided to continue their postgraduate studies in the UK after graduation.

The major of Vehicle Engineering (Sino-UK cooperation) is the first Sino-foreign cooperation educational project at Hubei University of Automotive Technology , which has realized the deep integration of our school's national first-class undergraduate construction major - Vehicle Engineering and the Automobile Performance Engineering major at the National Racing Engineering Center of the University of Bolton in the UK.

The students trained by this program have solid professional foundation, outstanding practical ability, and obvious innovation consciousness and possess good international vision.

Since the launch of the project in 2015, we will soon welcome the fifth generation of graduates. They have achieved outstanding results in employment and further education. Previous graduates have won the favor of the world's top 500 enterprises such as Dongfeng, BYD, Bosch and Geely.

The admission rate is more than 25%, including world-famous universities such as the University of Warwick, the University of Birmingham, the University of Leeds and the University of Bath, as well as domestic prestigious universities such as Wuhan University of Technology, Soochow University, Southwest Jiaotong University and Hebei University of Technology.

There are a total of 67 students who will graduate in 2023, of which 17 are admitted to master's degree in domestic and foreign universities, and Class 196 of vehicle engineering has been awarded the school's "excellent collective for postgraduate examination".

In the future, the school will continue to strengthen the multi-faceted international cooperation of vehicle engineering (Sino-UK cooperation) project, and cultivate more outstanding automotive engineers for the automotive industry in China and even the world.
