The vision and mission of CU-ICAR have always included a targeted focus on building a globally renowned center for automotive engineering. Today we see indicators that the international reach of CU-ICAR is stronger than ever.
CU-ICAR’s focus is on the needs of industry – in the areas of workforce and innovation. It is an environment of collaboration that others desire to emulate. With all the changes facing the automotive industry today, I am grateful for the vision for emphasizing “systems integration” in the automotive engineering program. A total vehicle systems experience and education is increasingly important to industry, and we’re prepared to meet these challenges head-on.
There is perhaps no time more exciting to be engaged in the automotive sector than today. The industry is undergoing a revolution powered by digital technologies and new materials. CU-ICAR and the Department of Automotive Engineering are right in the middle of all of this and continue to put South Carolina on the global map as a key player in this transformation.
