Careers

Greenpower is not just about having fun. Our aim is also to encourage participants to look at pursuing a career in engineering and technology.

Over the years many students who have taken part in Greenpower events have gone on to study or work in the engineering sector.

Engineering spans a huge range of topics – everything around you has had an engineer involved with it in some way; in its research, design, development and manufacture. The United Kingdom has always been a world leader in many areas of engineering, and will be for many years to come. Choosing a career in this diverse sector is guaranteed to involve you in fascinating and exciting work.



"I became the Patron of Greenpower in 2004. As someone heavily involved in motorsport I realise how important it is that this country continues to produce engineers of the highest quality. The Greenpower project is a key part of promoting engineering in schools. Combine this with the current relevance of 'green' transport, and it is clear that Greenpower is an initiative that really works. I look forward to playing a part in its future success."
The Earl of March, Patron of Greenpower
