FEATURED NEWS STORIES
The Wilson Center celebrates 25 years of student-driven building, learning and growing.
Michigan Engineering’s nearly 25,000 square-foot makerspace for students, the Wilson Student Team Project Center is stocked with lathes, mills, 3D printers, computer-aided design equipment—everything students need to build solar-powered cars, rockets, off-road vehicles, submarines, Mars rovers, even a concrete canoe. The cavernous, concrete-floored space, founded in 1999, was one of the first of its kind among U.S. universities and is still among the largest.
A rough 2024 season sparks frustration—but also leadership and learning—for the Michigan Baja team.
Hobbled by a transmission issue and a clogged gas cap that dampened acceleration, Michigan Baja Racing ended up placing fourth overall at the 2024 Baja SAE International Competition, held at a dusty desert track near Gorman, Calif. in April 2024. It was a disappointing outcome for a team that has placed among the top 3 Baja SAE International teams for the past 11 years. The hardships fueled teamwork, creativity, grit and empathy, which are among the leadership competencies that Michigan Engineering has identified as critical to student success.
