The role
A unique Summer Placement opportunity has arisen at Triumph Motorcycles for a current UK University student looking for a Summer Placement. This placement will run for 8-weeks from July 2025 to September 2025. This placement is only available for UK university students due to graduate in Summer 2026.
The placement will be based within the Design Department where your role will be similar to that of a full time Simulation Engineer. The work will be real, interesting and relevant to your studies, helping to develop and test a broad range of skills drawn from the knowledge you have gained at university. This simulation team role is focussed on FEA but may also include other simulation such as CFD and 1d analysis. Other tasks may include 3D CAD design work, as well as liaising with design teams and internal departments.
Students aren’t taken on as extra resource, they are needed to fulfil the role of an engineer and contribute to the design and development of a production motorcycle. The work is real, interesting and relevant to your studies. The design department is made up of small, very focussed teams, which will give you the opportunity to quickly take on a position of high responsibility.
