Hi, I'm mexican and I'm a senior in Highschool, so I have to choose a carrer for the university, I really love cars, and I would like to study something about them. In Mexico there isn't a carrer relationed directly for cars only technics carrers, so what do you recommend me? I don't know where's a university to study, maybe could be an Enginering. For example does Mike Kojima study in the university? or what did study the people who works in Formula 1, Nascar, Offroad, Drags, etc.?

Well, I hope you could help me

Thank you very much.

Pd. I'm an excellent student and I think that I could get a schoolarship.

Thanks

Being mexican doesnt limit you to reaching your goal's you seem to have good knowledge of the english language, First a student Visa is in order, After that you need to go to a College it doesnt matter wich one I went to Universal technical institute wich was pretty much a joke. You need to keep you obtions open to other area's. But if you want to stick with car's you can always become a Automotive Engineer (Designing cars)

If you want to design cars, mechanical engineering.

well, if you're good enough, mechanical engineering at University of Michigan or someplace like the Vehicle Research Institute at my alma mater, Western Washington University, if you like what they have to offer (which is very different from mechanical engineering at UM):
VRI (http://vri.etec.wwu.edu/)
If you're interested in wild-ass things like thermophotovoltaic powered cars or formula SAE cars with custom billet engine blocks combining two four-cylinder motorcycle engines into one V8 that is.
