At FAU High School students are designing, fabricating, testing, and analyzing an GT-EV Electric Supercar alongside FAU’s undergraduates. In the field of engineering, it is paramount that undergraduates know more than just theory; students are being pressed more and more to have experience in fabrication and design application in the real world. Teaching our future leaders skills applicable to the real world and how to apply these skills in the workplace is an equally important objective of this project. We wish to answer the question of whether or not electric cars are a viable means of transportation from various perspectives such as the consumer, environmental, and business standpoints by analyzing the characteristics of electric cars and their future capabilities. Students will not only participate in research conducted by undergraduate participating students, but also conduct their own research, fabricate their own theories, and benefit the future of STEM.
