Description: At Purdue, Baja Racing means a year spent designing, building, testing and finally racing an off-road vehicle. The competition gives us the opportunity to apply the concepts we have learned in class to a real-world problem. By joining the team you are exposed to valuable technical skills like CAD and FEA, while honing your communication and teamwork abilities. In the end, all the hard work pays off when we race a vehicle we can be proud of against other universities from around the world.
