Programme Design

This programme has been developed to provide students with the skills and experience they need to work as technician engineers in the motorsport industry.

Swansea Metropolitan University has its own motor racing team and enjoys a close relationship with a number of motorsport constructors.

Our successful industrial placement scheme has proved a valuable introduction to the motorsport industry for many of our students. Former HND students are now working for F1 and GT race teams and constructors.
