Description
As technology and the pace of change continue to
advance, the academy faces the challenge of preparing students
for future employment markets characterized by change and
uncertainty. To succeed in this market, practitioners need to
develop a broad range of skills in addition to more refined
practices within traditional disciplines. In this paper, we discuss
the benefits achieved through design and development of a
steering wheel among students participating in the Formula
Student project, an international competition where teams
design and build a racecar while overcoming challenges faced
along the way. We analyze the framework, embedded
component arrangement, methods and processes used by the
Bucharest UPBDrive racing team, along with the outcomes and
critical lessons learned for the next competition.
