Formula Student?

Formula Student is an international engineering competition where students design, build and race their own cars.

It combines on-track performance with technical evaluation (design, innovation, business), challenging teams in demanding competitions around the world.

Innovation

Developing high-value technical solutions.

The project is an experimentation ground for designing a competitive car, integrating innovative approaches adapted to real engineering and sustainability constraints. Each iteration aims to improve performance and the relevance of technical decisions.

Values

Respect

Creating a healthy and demanding work environment.

Respect guides our daily interactions, whether between members, with our partners or in project management. It means listening, considering everyone's constraints and maintaining an environment where people can express themselves and grow. This relational standard is essential for building a solid and lasting team.

Commitment

Getting involved seriously and consistently in the project.

Commitment means the willingness to contribute actively, take on responsibilities, be proactive and see things through to the end. In such a demanding project, everyone must be able to rely on each other. This individual investment is what allows the collective to move forward and achieve its goals.

Sustainability

Embedding responsible and long-term thinking into our decisions.

Sustainability goes beyond eco-responsibility: it also covers knowledge transfer, continuity of development and the economic viability of the project. It is a holistic way of thinking and designing that pushes us to question our technical decisions, resources and organisation, taking their long-term impact into account.
