Join the Team!
USC Racing is open to all majors and years. While most of the team are engineers, you don’t have to be an engineer to be involved – in fact, one of our most hard-core members was a math major! We also have an active business team that manages our portfolio, fundraising, and marketing, which has been a great showcase for the business students on the team.
“But I don’t know anything about cars!” That’s fine, many of us came in as freshman having never touched a car engine before. You’ll learn quickly, and we’ll help teach you how everything works. Minimum qualifications are enthusiasm, wanting to learn, and being willing to get hands-on and a little dirty.
Sign up for our email list here:
To join, come by the shop during shop hours (location and hours below – feel free to knock if the door is closed during shop hours) or drop by our general meeting held every Tuesday at 5pm. You’ll have to sign a safety waiver, pay a $20 membership fee, and you’re officially part of the team.
Once you do all that, make sure to also sign-up on this website with your @usc.edu email to get added to the team mailing list. Also make sure to talk to a team lead about getting added to the members-only Slack app (most of the team chit-chat goes on there).
**COVID UPDATE** We are still meeting and holding shop hours. If you want to join (even just to drop by and learn more) please contact us at scracer@usc.edu and we can get you the links!
Shop Location:
We are located in the Rapp Engineering Building (RRB). Our shop is inside the garage-looking part of RRB, which is located on Watt Way opposite of Vivian Hall (VHE).
