| Summary: | A new graduate degree programme, Master of Science in Electric Vehicles (MScEV), for engineering students is presented, which is timely and vital for modern society. The purpose of this programme is to provide graduate students with up-to-date knowledge and skills that can enhance their career prospects in the fast-growing electric vehicle (EV) community. The programme not only provides technological knowledge in system design, operation, and management of EVs, but also involves research training in specific EV topics. This paper first outlines the rationale of the programme and reveals the shortcomings of existing EV education. Then, the curriculum structure of the newly developed MScEV programme as well as the corresponding core and elective courses are discussed. Finally, the findings of this programme are evaluated, indicating that the programme is attractive to an overwhelming number of students from diverse engineering backgrounds, as evidenced by the applicants’ and admittees’ degree qualifications and work experiences. |
