Thomas Evans, University of Auckland engineering student, has been chosen by the Bruce McLaren International Internship to work for them in Surrey for a few months. Evans, who was born in England, grew up in Whangaparaoa, New Zealand.
Evans remarks on the opportunity.
“Automotive engineering is a field that is very hard to get into. so to get an opportunity like this with McLaren is amazing and not something I ever dared dream would be possible. I am excited to get to McLaren, meet the people and get started!”
The Bruce McLaren International Internship program was a product of Bruce himself. His jumpstart to the industry was a "Driver to Europe" scholarship he acquired when he was young, something that he attributes to his leading a supercar company.
Best of luck to Thomas Evans with his internship.
