Working on self-driving vehicles is exciting for many reasons. Rarely do you get an opportunity to help change the way we move. While the #ford team is excited about the chance we have to shape the future of #mobility, we also feel a responsibility to help foster this excitement with the next generation of engineers.
Working with students doesn’t just help prepare them for a successful career in the #automotive industry — it also keeps #ford at the forefront of cutting-edge research and creative thinking. We regularly collaborate with universities across the country to foster the growth of students and advance research in a variety of areas, from self-driving algorithm development to the study of new manufacturing materials.
For the past few years, #ford has been working with students in Clemson University’s Deep Orange #automotive program. Now in its 12th year, Deep Orange is a two-year Masters program that teaches by doing — it assembles students into teams and challenges them to design and build a fully functioning concept car. Working collaboratively with each other, faculty and industry veterans like those of us at #ford, students get a first-hand look at how a car goes from concept to reality.
