Peer Lecture to the Institute of Mechanical Engineering. Following on from our lecture to the Motorsport Engineering degreee students at Northbroork which seemed to be well received, we are delighted to be invited to speak to our peers at the Institute of Mechanical Engineers in January 2013.
In addition to our training services at the Academy of Motorsport Sciences which provides learning opportunities in Powertrain Dynamics, Chassis Dynamics and Aero Dynamics, we also offer lectures and expert witness services to the automotive and motorsport industries.
Welcome to the Academy for Motorsport Sciences
What is the Academy for Motorsport Sciences?
We teach the fundamental sciences that support motorsport engineering related subjects, in a way that we hope to be more quickly, easily and thoroughly understood.
We run short courses in the core subjects of Powertrain Dynamics, Chassis Dynamics, Aero Dynamics and Electronic Systems.
All of the courses vary in duration from 1 to 4 days, the average being only 2 days as the information is presented in such a way as to be quickly understood.
Our business model relies on our competencies to deliver service to the motor racing industry on a daily basis. When we’re not producing winning racing cars we’re teaching these courses.
Absolutely not! The courses are applicable to complete novices and industry professionals, although the latter should assimilate the information faster.
Courses are available at varying levels of complexity which are described separately, but you will find that even the entry level courses will give you a very good theoretical and practical learning outcome. The courses are also approved by the IMI thus can be credited to your Continuous Professional Development objectives.
Our instructors benefit from that very rare combination of having a thorough knowledge of the subject, and being able to communicate the key points in lay-man terms. This, and the small class participation numbers allows a more focused two-way interaction with the Trainers, to enable you to receive the maximum value from each course. Additionally, the courses are held in high quality professional venues.
Well, anyone who is interested in the subject matter, but specifically our courses will be of value to Motorsport and Tuning industry professionals seeking to refresh or advance their knowledge, Motorsport engineering educational establishment tutors and students, motor industry technicians etc.
That depends on your circumstances and objectives, but at the very least you will have a broader and deeper understanding of the subject which should assist in your professional development, you will receive a recognised course certificate, and IMI members get credits towards their CPD objectives.
The classroom activities are held at the Centre for Mechanical and Engineering Excellence, Marsh Way, Dagenham, Essex, RM13 8EU http://www.ceme.co.uk/contact/map.aspx and the practical activities are held at the Rototest chassis dynamometer facility at Torque Developments International, 5 Cliffside Trade Park, Motherwell Way, Thurrock, Essex, RM20 3XD
Each course is priced individually and we hope you will find them to be good value, especially considering the quality of the instruction, the venues, and the small class numbers. The costs are tax deductable and Vat recoverable where appropriate.
Apart from the expert tuition and first class facilities, you will be served refreshments throughout the day, lunch when the course is held at CEME, and a course completion certificate.
Yes, our courses are offered to Motorsport Engineering Foundation and Masters degree students at Northbook College, and 1000’s of professional members at the Institute of the Motor Industry (IMI). We’re also in discussions with other learning establishments and professional organizations.
