…is the degree course my son was accepted for yesterday. The third year is spent on placement – recent ones include Honda, in new product introduction; Aston Martin, in special vehicle projects data acquisition; NP Aerospace, working on the new range of military vehicles; Eaton Trucks, in gearbox design; McLaren Automotive, in software test and evaluation; BMW, in vehicle trim and materials; and Cummins Engines, on engine development and build.

But his first job was at PR Motors!

Good luck to everyone embarking on the next stage of their studies or career this September.
