Chem-E-Car Competition

For AIChE’s annual Chem-E-Car Competition, we design and build a car that’s fueled by a chemical energy source. The goal is to have it safely travel some distance specified on race day and come to a stop.

There is a class for credit for participation in Chem-E-Car called ChE 070 offered during Fall and Winter term.
