- The prestigious training program maintains its unique combination of theory and practice, all led by a renowned teaching team and experts in the field.
- With 36 students of 8 different nationalities, these postgraduate studies continue to establish themselves as a benchmark in the training of engineers specialising in motorsport.
- “Direct contact with competition is key to the training of a motorsport engineer. Facing real situations on the track and learning to react to unforeseen events is what makes the difference,” says Jaime Serrano, CEO of Monlau Motul.
The Master’s Degree in Motorsport Engineering at Monlau Motul Technical School is opening its doors to its 2025 class. With more than 400 engineers trained since its inception in 2010, it has established itself as the best way to enter the world of motorsport and as the reference for graduates in Technical or Higher Engineering who wish to specialise in competition at the highest level.
The main objective of this postgraduate course has been the same since its creation: to train the best engineers of the future. With the work methodology implemented at the Barcelona school, students acquire not only the most advanced technical knowledge, but also management and analysis tools used in the degree.
To this end, students receive, over ten months of work and 350 teaching hours at the facilities in Montcada and Reixac (Barcelona), comprehensive teaching that combines theory with practice, led by qualified teachers and experts in their fields.
This approach has attracted a growing number of students, and this year the Master has a record 36 students from 8 different nationalities. 66.7% of them come from Spain, while 30.5% come from America, with Mexico at the top, followed by Argentina, Colombia, Ecuador, Chile and Venezuela. Portugal also joins the list of countries represented, which reinforces the growing international projection of the program.
“The international demand for our Master is a sign of the prestige and confidence that Monlau Motul generates. Each edition we offer a high level of training to ensure that our students are prepared for the elite of motorsport,” explains Gerard Gasulla, coordinator of the Master.
As for the teaching team, it maintains the additions from last year, who provide knowledge in key areas such as electronic management of car engines, motorcycle suspensions and aerodynamic simulation using a wind tunnel.
The 16th edition maintains the philosophy of promoting and improving the practical approach, allowing students to work on applied projects from day one. The structure of the programme follows a progression in which, as the course progresses, the demands of the theoretical sessions, as well as the on-track practices, increase, culminating in a final practical session, where students must demonstrate their ability not only in data acquisition and dynamics, but also in the management of mechanics and drivers in a real racing environment.
In addition, students on the online Master’s also participate in two of the practical sessions, where they work together with those on the face-to-face programme.“Direct contact with competition is key to the training of a motorsport engineer. Facing real situations on the track and learning to react to unforeseen events is what makes the difference when they join professional teams,” highlights Jaime Serrano, CEO of Monlau Motul Technical School.
A direct route to the paddocks of the world’s elite
The international recognition of the Master is reflected in the presence of its alumni in the paddocks of MotoGP™, Formula 1™, WEC and other prestigious world competitions. Thanks to comprehensive training, graduates have a direct gateway to the motorsport industry.
With demanding preparation and a practical approach, the 2025 edition of the Monlau Motul Master in Motorsport Engineering promises to be, once again, the ultimate springboard for engineers aspiring to the elite of world motorsport and motorcycle racing.
