We're pleased to share examples of the wonderful people and groups in our community and how they make our student members feel proud to be part of Staffs.
Staffs Uni Racing
Student led group | Academic
Some proud students told us...
"This group benefits students by giving them the chance to work on an engineering project and to compete with like-minded individuals in delivering a car from a rule set in a given time frame. This experience really prepares you for the future in terms of a career and you can make good friends over time too. I love Formula Student (SUR) because of the atmosphere we have, which is of teamwork and perseverance. Martin is the main person behind our Formula Student team and he is nothing short of a wonder. Knows everything about cars, can figure out any issue (given enough time) and is so kind that he makes you feel better when you don't understand anything. He is a great teacher, mentor and friend."
"Very welcoming and friendly. Fundamental towards me learning more outside my lectures. Sense of togetherness and family Giving more hands on experience to make me more employable Fun events as a team. The committee ensure everyone is involved and feel included. Help teach new skills"
"The Staffordshire Uni Racing Society has contributed to a significant improvement in both my engineering knowledge and my enjoyment while at university. The team have significantly improved my university experience, and working with a race team while studying at university is an experience that could not have been offered to me otherwise. This is I'm sure is true of the entire team, as every member of the team who has graduated has gone onto significantly important jobs such as engineering across Formula 1, as well as a plethora of other engineering companies worldwide.
Being a part of this team is more than being in a society, its more like joining a family."
Thank you SUR for making a positive difference for students here at Staffs.
We hope that you are as proud of your story as we are. However, if you would prefer the Students' Union to no longer display your story on our website, please email union@staffs.ac.uk and a member of our friendly team will be happy to help.
