FORMULA STUDENT IS AN INTERNATIONAL COLLEGIATE ENGINEERING DESIGN COMPETITION FOUNDED BY THE

SOCIETY OF AUTOMOTIVE ENGINEERS (SAE) IN 1981. IT IS BASED AROUND THE CONCEPT OF A FICTIONAL

MANUFACTURING COMPANY LOOKING TO DESIGN AND DEVELOP A FORMULA-STYLE RACING CAR TARGETED AT THE

‘WEEKEND RACER’. FORMULA STUDENT COMPETITIONS FEATURE A SERIES OF STATIC AND DYNAMIC EVENTS

DESIGNED TO CHALLEGE ALL ASPECTS OF THE STUDENT-BUILT RACE CARS.

FORMULA STUDENT IS A COMPETITION WHICH PROMOTES INNOVATION AND EXCELLENCE IN ENGINEERING, AND

PLAYS HOST TO THE MOST TALENTED AND CAPABLE YOUNG ENGINEERS IN THE WORLD.

FORMULA STUDENT IS A WORLDWIDE PHENOMENON, WITH TEN OFFICIAL COMPETITIONS TAKING PLACE IN

EIGHT COUNTRIES. COLLECTIVELY THERE ARE APPROXIMATELY 500 ACTIVE COMBUSTION AND ELECTRIC

FORMULA STUDENT TEAMS.

“FORMULA STUDENT ENCOURAGES VERY DIVERSE INNOVATIONS. IN MANY WAY FORMULA STUDENT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE MORE INNOVATIVE THAN F1”

- ROSS BRAWN, FORMULA STUDENT PATRON
