The CFS Approach

Build a competition vehicle, yes, that is what Chalmers Formula Student does – but it is only a small part of a substantially larger picture.

Our true aim is to select ambitious students, inspire them to make independent data-driven decisions, communicate across technical borders and make continuous compromises based on detailed analysis to achieve the optimum overall solution. We call this the CFS Approach. It begins with the Pre-Study phase, an intense study period to understand the problem posed and to set up the overall vehicle architecture, while learning from previous experience. This continues into Design, Manufacturing, and through the extensive Testing period in preparation to evaluate the finished solution against the top Universities from across the world in a competitive environment.

Approach

We do not simply build a competition vehicle. We take ambitious students and educate them through the CFS approach.

– We Deliver the Engineers of Tomorrow.
