STEM Racing is one of the world's largest and most influential youth competitions in science, technology and innovation. Originating in the UK in 2000, it has now reached over 20,000 schools across more than 50 countries. The competition essentially replicates the standard preparation process of an F1 racing team for the participating students, contributing engineering, marketing and sponsorship. It has also gained wider international recognition through the endorsement of both the CREST Award and the Duke of Edinburgh Award. Moreover, the competition is partnered with University College London's Mechanical Engineering Department, which provides scholarship opportunities for competing students in World Finals.
