About

 

Thank you for participating in the second Formula Student Engine Symposium.

We are looking forward to see you in 2014.

 

 

Unique | Within reach | For you to

 
The successful event of 2012 once again proved that knowledge sharing is a crucial element of the Formula Student Movement.
This year a wider variety of topics will assure that everyone finds their interest. More workshops raise the opportunity for contribution, gaining and sharing practical knowledge.
  
Besides broadening the knowledge of existing members, we find that the Formula Student Engine Symposium itself is a great tool to help young teams to stick in the movement by creating the possibility of building professional contacts. The event will nourish the growing FS community of Eastern Europe by helping and informing the universities and students who are interested, but did not take any actual steps or struggling with problems of starting.
 
It is the only place, where many FS teams come together professionally, but outside a racetrack
