It’s been four years in the making, and in 2014 our engineering students made history with the completion of the first-ever student designed and built Formula-style electric vehicle at °µºÚ±¬ÁÏ.

The Formula Electric team traveled to the Formula Hybrid competition in Loudon, N.H., in May 2014 and participated in the static design event. The team received third place in Chrysler’s Electrification Innovation Award for the vehicle’s battery management system. They finished fourth out of seven electric vehicles at the competition.

“This team gives engineering students the opportunity to expand skills and to really get involved,” says Mark Keenan, Formula SAE electric team manager and electrical engineering student.
