HONG KONG – The INFINITI Engineering Academy, now in its third year, is a one-of-a-kind global search for the world's best up-and-coming engineers. For 2016, seven placements have been made available with one winner chosen each from the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Europe (including Russia), the United Arab Emirates, China and Asia–Pacific.

This unique automotive-to-motorsport training program for brilliant young engineers, possible thanks to INFINITI's Technical Partnership with the Renault Sport Formula One™ Team, has attracted 4,108 registrations from 44 different countries. A number of previous winners have gone on to secure full time careers in the automotive and motorsport industries.

"The extraordinary level of interest in this year's INFINITI Engineering Academy has been absolutely fantastic," said Tommaso Volpe, global director, INFINITI Motorsport. "Students have seen the accomplishments of our Academy's graduates, who have gone on to forge successful careers in the automotive industry. This has meant that more students than ever want to use the Academy to gain vital engineering experience and launch their own careers. With F1 becoming more and more relevant to the automotive industry, and an increased focus of the placements this year being on the road car development, we are training a new generation of engineers who will play a key role in the crossover between the two industries."
