Since 1981, Formula SAE has provided university students with a unique opportunity to apply engineering principles in a competitive, hands-on environment. What began as a single collegiate event has grown into a globally recognized program that challenges participants to design, build, and validate formula-style race cars while balancing performance, cost, manufacturability, and safety.

As teams prepare for the upcoming competition season, this technical workshop will bring together industry professionals and experienced judges to share insights on key areas of vehicle development. Attendees will explore topics such as chassis design, vehicle dynamics, production methods, and current competition requirements through interactive presentations and discussions.

Participants are encouraged to bring their vehicles and subsystem components to receive guidance on technical challenges, evaluate design decisions, and gain practical perspectives from experts. The event also offers opportunities to connect with fellow competitors, exchange solutions, and learn from the experiences of other teams within the Formula SAE community. Breakfast and lunch will be provided.

This workshop creates an environment for productive learning and collaboration. Whether developing a new concept or refining an existing platform, attendees will leave with valuable knowledge, actionable feedback, and greater confidence heading into competition season.
