Car Design News rounds up the winners of the annual Contechs and Drive Design industry Awards Night at Coventry University
Coventry University’s Automotive and Transport Design BA has cemented itself as one of the premier courses for those looking for a job in car design. This year’s flock of graduates had the chance to showcase their work in the stunning (and recently renovated) Delia Derbyshire building, with an impressive mix of clay, 3D-printed and animated models on display.
As always, students were on hand to talk through their work – we will have a deeper feature on our recent visit to chat with many of them – and at an awards evening supported by industry sponsors, many were given additional plaudits. While the ultimate goal is to get a placement with an OEM, supplier or design consultancy of any kind, the awards place a spotlight on who industry players see as a cut above the rest.
The following students took home the honours from this year’s awards, with…
Access to motor show and concours coverage, trend and technology reports, design reviews of new and classic concept and production cars, exclusive interviews, regional reports, who’s where, design essays, career resources, design competitions, regular newsletter updates PLUS comprehensive degree show reports from the world’s leading design schools, the CDN archive of sketches, images and articles spanning 20 years of coverage.
An online subscription also gains you access to exclusive designer interviews from our annual Car Design Review yearbook, and access to exclusive interior design reviews from Interior Motives magazine. You can also receive Interior Motives in print through our online + print subscription, or buy individual copies of Interior Motives and Car Design Review.
Fees start from £55/€60/$70. Packages available for students, individuals, schools and corporates.
