The Team
The ACE Formula Hybrid team consists of students from all undergraduate to graduate levels that come from a variety of majors including mechanical, aerospace, electrical, computer, chemical, and environmental, as well as civil and architectural majors. The team consists of mechanical and electrical design divisions and each member is assigned a role based on knowledge and experience. Both divisions collaborate on the two cars destined for competition and every student can find an active role in the project regardless of experience.
