Over a dozen EcoCAR sponsors provided critical training to teams in the areas of Engineering, Project Management, Equity in Mobility and Communications. These training sessions will better prepare teams to tackle the deliverables and engineering challenges they will face this year.
In addition to training, job-seeking students had the opportunity to meet with industry sponsors about internships and full-time positions at the Sponsor Social Networking and Recruitment event that took place Friday, Oct 5. Teams also enjoyed an evening filled with team bonding activities and seafood at the Team Appreciation Night hosted by MathWorks.
