hello
sorry to go digging up a bit of an old thread but i could really do with some help here, i am now in my last year of senior school and am due to leave in june.
i am wondering what is my best option of a route to take to get in to motorsports, ideally i would like to go into chassis and suspension design and manufacture.
i wasnt actually aware about how many different uni's offered motorsport courses, i thought it was only really swansea and cranfeild that did them.
i wasnt planning on doing A-levels , but like a lot of people say 'doing BTEC's are the easy option, and A-levels are proferred by employers'
wich is probably perfectly true.
so i can do my A-levels, and then go on to do a Bengs in motorsport engineering, but as has been explained above this isnt really a hands on course, so would it still be appreciated by employers??
Also what uni would you guys reccomend for doing this course at?
or any other advice for a possible career path to take?
i already have quite a lot of practical experience and im gaining more all the time
