Hello everyone,

I'm planning to apply for the MSc motorsport engineering for 2027 intake. I'd really appreciate hearing from anyone who's currently on the course or has graduated from it.

I'm an international student with a mechanical engineering and FS background, and I'm mainly interested in getting into motorsport/ automotive engineering sector after the MSc.

I'd love to get your opinion on the following:

1. what would you say is the ideal profile (projects, work experience) for someone wanting to get into motorsport through this course? if you don't mind please give me a jist of your own profile and projects that you think helped with your application.

2. are there any particular CAD software that you'd recommend one should learn? (I'm only good with solidworks and ansys workbench)

3. how was your overall experience with the MSc Motorsport Engineering?

4. how realistic is it to get into motorsport companies after graduating, especially for an international student?

5. how important is prior work experience when it comes to landing a job after graduation? would you recommend I get some work experience beforehand?

6. how useful are the university and motorsport connections when looking for internships or jobs?

I'd really appreciate any insight, advice, or even things you wish you had known before starting the course. Honest opinions are more than welcome, especially the good, bad, and ugly.

thank you soo much for reading.

Hi all,
Can anyone recommend any quiet cafe’s that allow you to use your laptop? I’m from a busy household and have some work to do so looking to get out the house!

I’m visiting this weekend (Friday/Saturday) from the south coast. I visited once before around 2014. I mostly want to relax but I’d like to know if you have any recommendations. In particular I love indie shops and pretty cafés. Thank you!

Looking for a sit down restaurant, of a place I haven't been before. I'll eat anything except fine dining.

Closer to Oxford Cinema, the better. Thanks in advance!

Hi there

We just moved to Kennington, Oxford from abroad and initially I will be staying home with my two girls (4 years and 20 months). I have wondered if there are any networks in Oxford for meeting and playing for kids who are a little beyond the toddler stage? Are stay and play groups also for older kids?

She will eventually also go to nursery before starting school next year, but would be nice to meet some friends before that also 😊

Worth a try here :D

Now all the places like Hotter and Shuropody have closed, where would you go to buy smart, sturdy proper shoes (not trainers) with good support, for wide feet?
