YOUNG ENGINEERS SET FOR AAAEXPO
The Australian Auto Aftermarket Expo is one of the finest areas to showcase the ingenuity and talent inherent in our industry’s engineers
Many of these engineers are members of the Society of Automotive Engineers Australasia (SAE-A) through their participation in a university competition called Formula SAE-A.
The competition enables students to display their engineering prowess through the design and manufacture of their own open wheel motor racing vehicle, and then compete with Universities around Australia and overseas.
Attracting more than 1000 people, the event is run annually with the electric vehicle category dominating the competition including a growing autonomous vehicle element, currently a demonstration category.
The competition still includes the internal combustion engine segment but with a diminishing number of universities participating.
Designing and building these vehicles while completing an engineering degree means that once these young engineers graduate, they are ready to work with practical hands-on experience – a big plus for future employers.
Formula SAE-A is a great recruitment tool if you are looking for the finest engineers in the country.
There is no better place than the Australian Auto Aftermarket Expo for potential companies to showcase their products and services and discuss the opportunities for engineering work with these young engineers, many of whom will be attending the show as they are ready and willing to work in the automotive sector.
