It’s been a year of both triumph and, unfortunately, tragedy and in this issue we take time out to remember María de Villota, whose passing in October left a deep void not just in motor sport but in all our hearts. María’s bravery following her F1 testing accident and the dedication she displayed afterwards – not only in promoting female involvement in motor sport but also safety on the road and track – will be missed. Elsewhere, it was a year of great success for women competitors and in this edition we look at Lucile Cypriano’s victory in the VW and commission-supported shoot-out for a place in next year’s VW Scirocco R-Cup and reveal how the FIA European Rallycross Championship has become a haven for female racers. It’s been a great year for CONTACTS: women in all forms of motor sport and IF YOU HAVE ANY COMMENTS ABOUT THIS NEWSLETTER OR we look forward to even more in 2014! STORIES FOR THE NEXT ISSUE, WE WOULD LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU.

  • Fast-Cars in Schools: a CADET Outreach Initiative John M
    AAEE2017 CONFERENCE Manly, Sydney, Australia Fast-Cars in Schools: a CADET Outreach Initiative John M. Long, Leanne Collins, Jason Steinwedel, Jessica Sautner, and Simon Cavenett School of Engineering, Deakin University, Geelong, VIC Corresponding Author Email: [email protected] SESSION Educating the Edisons of the 21st Century CONTEXT In order to provide for Australia’s long-term needs for engineers, it has become apparent that the profession needs to promote itself to school-age children. This is so that the seeds of interest in engineering are planted early enough so that they can grow. Recent research indicates that this can be most effectively done in primary schools. Students tend to decide whether they have an interest in STEM fields before secondary school. The Centre for Advanced Design and Engineering Training (CADET) was established as a facility for educating engineers, starting in primary school and providing facilities and expertise all the way to doctoral studies. One key component of CADET’s mission is to provide outreach programs in engineering to students in both primary and secondary school. PURPOSE A primary-school outreach program was developed to give students an authentic engineering experience in the context of developing a small racing car and working with an associated cross-disciplinary team. The program was designed to be completely immersed and integrated with the Victorian Curriculum at year six. APPROACH The program was named “Fast Cars in Schools.” Teams of students from a number of primary schools developed a complete racing package of a small car, team jerseys, logos, advertising posters, and even sponsorship.

  • Program F1 in Schools E-Learning
    The Randstad Williams Engineering Academy has been set up to provide pupil’s with specific academic and career support in their route towards becoming Formula One engineers. The aim is to support future talented engineers by sharing expertise from top William’s engineers combined with advice from Randstad to increase employability. The wider benefit will be to inspire school aged children to study engineering and aspire to a career in Formula One. Program The Randstad Williams Engineering Academy (RWEA) is a remote e-learning programme that will see 10 students join each year and receive support, training and guidance to underpin their engineering education. The eligibility criteria are: - To apply students must be in a team competing at the F1 in Schools World Finals competition - They must be 16-18 years of age at the time the Academy begins (October each year) - The Academy is open to all nationalities - They must be fluent in written and spoken English - Successful applicants will be able to demonstrate a passion for engineering and a desire to work as an engineer in the future This is a competitive scheme, with each cohort of students gradually whittled down in numbers based on performance criteria. The goal is for successful graduates of the Academy to join Williams upon completion of their university studies. F1 in Schools F1 in Schools is a not for profit organisation based in the UK that operates a global competitive programme through which schools enter teams of aspiring engineers to design and build miniature racing cars. Groups of 3 - 6 students have to design and manufacture a miniature "car" out of balsa wood.

    PLM Knowledge 21 Volume 4 Issue 1 June 2006 “Empowering Knowledge for 21st Century Engineers” UGS Corp. Recognized as a Top Supporter of Historically Black Engineering Schools The only PLM company to receive this recognition Plano, TX–UGS Corp. ranks 3rd among fortune 500 corporations and U.S. government agencies in its HBSU Deans w/Tyrone Taborn support of historically Black engineering schools in the U.S., according to a recent independent survey of the deans of those schools. Career Communications Group, publisher of U.S. Black Engineer & Information Technology (USBE & IT) magazine, conducted the survey last month. Participants in the survey were the deans of the 10 ABET-accredited, historically Black college and university (HBCU) engineering programs; the dean of engineering of historically Black Jackson State University; and the executive di- rector of the corporate-academic alliance Advancing Minorities’ Interest in Engineering (AMIE). The questionnaire asked the deans to list the 10 companies they feel contribute most to their schools’ institutional missions. AMIE was asked what companies provide the most support to Black engineering schools. In all, 51 companies were named as Top Supporters. Tyrone D. Taborn, editor in chief of USBE & IT and chairman and CEO of the magazine’s publisher, Career Communica- tions Group Inc. (CCG), says, “We are consistently finding many corporations that are doing more than their share in building the pipeline. This survey reflects the perception that the deans and AMIE share about the level of support they receive from Corporate America. One of the reasons we received a tremendous response from our readers to our last four surveys is that people care.
