Do you want to be a race engineer?
A race engineer is responsible for specifying and maximising the performance of the car, driver and race team.
This involves analysing data, optimising set-up and managing the mechanics, whilst ensuring both the team and race car comply with the regulations.

If the answer is yes, then the MIA School of Race Engineering is for you!
The School of Race Engineering, created and run by the Motorsport Industry Association (MIA) is a unique education opportunity that delivers winning race engineering theory and knowledge, straight from the racetrack to students and motorsport engineers around the world.
Tutored by current leading race engineers from Formula 1, WEC, BTCC, Formula E, WRC and Indycar, attendees are able to develop their technical knowledge of the theories behind race engineering, giving them an advantage over their peers in a competitive industry. This is the only course of its kind that has successfully advanced the careers of attendees over the past 15 years, through classroom education and online learning opportunities.
We offer a 4-day in-person course, running twice a year, which gives attendees an overview of different motorsport disciplines. For those wishing to specialise in certain engineering areas, we offer one-day online modules, with each module focusing specifically on a motorsport topic.
