To decrease the country's reliance on foreign fossil fuels and minimize the ecological effects of petroleum-based energy systems, there's a pressing demand to transition a substantial portion of our transportation to electric power. In 2010, Wayne State pioneered as the first academic institution to introduce a complete electric-vehicle engineering program. Supported by a $5 million U.S. Department of Energy grant and located in the heart of automotive manufacturing, Wayne State equips students with the skills and expertise to emerge as future leaders in vehicle innovation.
Within Wayne State's College of Engineering, you'll study under nationally recognized faculty while experiencing our transformative Student Success Initiatives: collaborative learning, international outlook, hands-on research opportunities, professional work experiences, and civic engagement.
