Win A Dream Job Experience With Accu & Oxford Brookes Racing Team

Could You Become A Professional Race Car Engineer?

Last year, we partnered with the UK’s most successful student motorsport team - Oxford Brookes Racing - to offer a once-in-a-lifetime work experience, learning the ins and outs of designing and building a racecar.

This year, the competition is back bigger and better than ever and designed specifically to help someone on their way to becoming a professional racing car engineer.

The Prize

This time around we’re offering 3 lucky winners the chance to immerse themselves in the world of motorsport - and get paid £200 whilst they’re at it - exploring the science behind designing, prototyping and building a competitive racing car.

You’ll spend the day (April 5th 2023) at Wheatley Campus with Oxford Brookes Racing, receiving hands-on experience of design and manufacturing a racecar, learning about CAD modelling, aerodynamics, composites and the components that make up the cars.
