Behind the scenes.... Inspiring the Next Generation of Engineers – Aston University Students Visit GBS
/
Earlier this week, we were delighted to welcome a group of engineering students from Aston University to the GBS factory for a full behind-the-scenes tour. The students, who are currently undertaking a GBS Zero self-build project of their own, had the opportunity to explore the complete production process — from design and engineering through to fabrication, assembly, and testing.
As part of their visit, the group saw first hand how the GBS Zero is designed and manufactured in-house, including our ATR components such as suspension, throttle bodies and more. It was a great chance for the students to gain practical insight into automotive engineering and manufacturing, while asking questions and learning from our experienced team.
We're always proud to support educational institutions and student-led projects, and the Zero self-build kit provides an ideal platform for applying real-world engineering skills. Whether it's mechanical, electrical, fabrication or systems engineering, the GBS Zero is a rewarding and exciting challenge that delivers hands-on learning in a truly unique way.
We’re passionate about encouraging the next generation of engineers and are always open to working with schools, colleges, and universities. If you're an educator or part of a student group and would like to discuss an educational build opportunity, a collaboration, or arrange a factory tour — we’d love to hear from you.
