TRANSPORTATION – TODAY AND TOMORROW
JOIN US FOR A RARE LOOK AT THE FUTURE OF TRANSPORTATION AND
PARTICIPATE IN A STUDENT DESIGN CHALLENGE
How do you actually design and build a car? What are the main components of an electric vehicle? What does the future of the auto industry look like? Join us Tuesday, May 26 at 9:30am PDT for a conversation with one of the industry’s leaders, Marques McCammon, as he answers some of these questions, and launches a student Design Challenge.
Marques is currently President of Transportation Design at Ricardo North America, an international transportation design and engineering firm.
After graduating with a Master’s Degree in Engineering from University of Michigan, he designed and built cars for Chrysler, including one of the world’s first four-door convertibles. Marques has also built and marketed electric vehicles, run marketing and sales organizations, and led a software company.
The presentation will also introduce a special Design Challenge, where students will help solve a unique transportation industry “challenge,” with winners announced at a follow-up Zoom conference on Thursday, June 4 at 9:30am PDT. Design Challenge details will be provided during the webinar.
