UNOH TURNS PASSION FOR ENGINES
INTO DREAM JOB
Frankie Forman traveled from Westminster, Maryland to Lima, Ohio to get his hands dirty and learn about automotive
technology. Frankie completed a small diesel program in high school, but did not have any automotive background prior
to starting classes at the University of Northwestern Ohio.
“I was a little lost at first,” Frankie explained. “There was a big learning curve, but the information was there, it was readily
available. And the hands-on training at UNOH is pretty much priceless.”
When attending UNOH, Frankie was not hesitant to dive in and get the experience he needed to learn the industry.
Frankie also decided to get involved in the Motorsports Team to continue learning outside of the classroom.
The Motorsports Team, a university-recognized athletic team, encompasses a group of students who build, drive and
crew race cars that compete during the spring and summer at dirt tracks around the region. A few of the team members
specialize in building the engines for the team. This intrigued Frankie and that is what he set his eyes to do. “I basically
just worked hard and kept trucking at it until I got into that group,” Frankie said. “And then from there, I just learned even
more. Because the car stuff is valuable, but what interested me was the
engines.”
During Frankie’s time building engines, the university started traveling
around with students to tear down and rebuild an engine on stage
during recruiting events. Frankie became a part of that team where he
would fire up the engine, tear it down, put it back together, and fire it
up again. While at Daytona International Speedway and Monster Jam
events, Frankie was able to make invaluable connections in the industry.
Frankie’s involvement on the Motorsports Team, paired with his engine
knowledge, landed him an opportunity of a lifetime. In 2020, Frankie
moved to Tennessee to start a job with Engine Power TV and host
POWERNATION shows.
“We make automotive television, but it’s more of a DIY television show,” Frankie clarified. “We try and get a lot of technical
information across in the show.” Frankie is able to work on a variety of engine projects, from an engineer tearing down
an engine and then doing custom work to building up an engine for a specific application. During the process, Frankie
explains what they are doing and the science behind the method to the viewers.
“Almost everything that I know and that I can incorporate into this job were things that I learned or picked up while I was
at UNOH,” Frankie exclaimed. “I would say pretty much 95% of what I know, I learned at UNOH.”
One of the major things that persuaded Frankie to complete his degree at UNOH was that the university was not centered
around one type of racing. “There’s schools where you can go to learn only about NASCAR, but UNOH has well-rounded
programs where they’ll teach you anything you want to know about any kind of racing,” Frankie said. “There’s so much
that you can do and opportunities are pretty much endless because of the education you get.” And Frankie is using this
knowledge to educate viewers across the country who are watching Engine Power as part of the PowerNation network
of shows.

There are many other internship opportunities that

opportunities vary from internships to volunteering at

Even during these challenging times, opportunities are still
available for students to take advantage of. Dustyn, and
other Sport Marketing and Management students, are very
grateful for the once in a lifetime opportunity to happen!

OIL LATE MODELS
Have you ever thought about pursuing a dream that
seemed unachievable? That is exactly what led Mason
Bevard from Kendallville, IN to Lima, OH to attend the
University of Northwestern Ohio. Although Mason’s
passion for Motorsports started at a young age, he chose
to pursue his education in the Robotics and Automation
industry because he wasn’t sure he could be successful
with a career in motorsports.
After completing his Robotics and Automation Technology
Associate’s Degree at UNOH he decided he couldn’t ignore he came. After he learned how we wanted things done,

to be able to see a school prepare people like that!”
When UNOH announced its new partnership as the Official
Educational Partner of the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series,
many students were excited to learn of the opportunities
this would create. Mason was first in line to sign up for the
