CASEE
Center for Automotive Systems
Engineering Education
Its all about the space...... but the space is only a component of the Center
It’s all about automotive ......but it’s also about educating students to think
systems in any engineering platform
It’s all about systems engineering......but it also provides curricular support
for all engineering departments in a variety of ways
It’s all about faculty and research ...... faculty play a critical role, it’s really
about students
It‘s all about students ......but also about providing the resources for faculty
to mentor and assist students in projects
Ok, so finally it’s about cool student projects like the SAE Hybrid or Shell
eco-car…but it’s also a place for curricular support
CASEE integrates!!
It’s all about a Center ......yes!! The Center brings together
