How can I join?

There are 4 different ways to join Formula Electric Belgium:

Postgraduate

Postgraduates follow the postgraduate program and take on the biggest load of work. They work full time on the project and need to manage the part-timers too.

Part-Time

Besides postgraduates, the team also exists of part-timers who combine their study with the project. They work about 10-12 hours a week on tasks presented by the postgraduate members.

Thesis

Research is a big part of engineering. That’s why we offer some master theses that can be completed within the team.

Internship

Next to our thesis members, there is also a possibility to do your internship at our team. This can vary from working on a technical department like vehicle dynamics to a non technical department like marketing. But most importantly, they take the internship as a course, so take credits, for doing the internship.
