Automotive engineering ubc

Formula UBC, founded in 1991, is a student team that designs and builds a Formula-style open-wheel race car for competition in the Formula SAE collegiate design series

Each year a new car is taken from concept to reality and brought to competition, scoring points for both engineering design and dynamic driving performance

Encompassing a broad range of fields, mechanical engineering is a practical, hands-on discipline

At UBC’s Mechanical Engineering program, you’ll begin by mastering the fundamentals, building a knowledge base in solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, dynamics, thermodynamics, vibrations, heat transfer, controls and design

We work on a two year design cycle, and invite students from all faculties including Engineering, Science, Business, and Arts

UBC Supermileage was founded in 2001 by UBC Mechanical Engineering students Rob Mahaffey and Brian Jung, with a vision for young engineers to test classroom theories against real engineering problems
