AUTOCAR: Autocar-Courland Next Generation Award 2011

Win £7,500 and work experience!

Win £7,500 and car industry work experience by entering the Autocar-Courland Next Generation Award, a national competition to identify, support and develop top automotive talent of the future. Entrants from UK universities are invited to answer a brief set by Autocar's Editor-in-chief, Steve Cropley.

Submissions will be welcomed from all disciplines, including - but not limited to - engineering, marketing and communications, design and media. Special credit will be given to the originality of entrants’ suggestions.

The six best entrants will attend a Dragon’s Den-style judging day at the home of Autocar, where they will have the chance to present their ideas to a panel of leading industry executives. Three finalists will be invited to the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders’ annual dinner, where the winner will be announced.

The winner will receive a £7500 cash prize plus one month’s work experience at each of the leading automotive organisations supporting the award. This will be a unique opportunity for the winner to acquire contacts, experience – and perhaps even a job offer!

Entries close on the 28th August 2011.
