In conjunction with the MIA and National Motorsport week, M-Sport – the company behind Ford’s assault on the World Rally Championship (WRC) since 1997 – will open its doors for students to attend a unique engineering seminar on Monday 2 July.
M-Sport have a long history of supporting emerging talent, and the seminar aims to provide prospective engineers with an insight in to what careers are available within the UK motorsport industry.
Following a behind-the-scenes tour of the company’s state-of-the-art facilities at Dovenby Hall in Cumbria, attendees will have the opportunity to put their questions to one of the team’s experienced rally engineers in the Ford World Rally Team hospitality unit.
The seminar is open to all engineering students, regardless of course or level. But with places limited to just 20 spaces, those wishing to attend should register their interest via an email to enquiries@m-sport.co.uk detailing why they should be selected.
Registrations close at 12 noon on Tuesday 26 June, and selected attendees will be informed via email no later than Thursday 28 June.
We look forward to welcoming you to Dovenby Hall.
