Michael Comeaux's Company Details
We are a group of students excited about the possibilities presented by the beginnings of a Formula SAE team at UL Lafayette. While there is a certain "cool factor" inherent with building a race car, we are primarily motivated by educational aspects which we believe will accelerate our learning and ultimately make us better engineers. One of the best ways to learn is by doing. The Formula SAE competition provides students with a way to do exactly that. Formula SAE promotes careers and excellence in engineering as it encompasses all aspects of the automotive industry including research, design, manufacturing, testing, developing, marketing, management and finances. Formula SAE takes students out of the classroom and allows them to apply textbook theories to real work experiences. Many students' understanding of engineering and their problem solving abilities will exceed what is being taught in the classroom and that of their peers. Because of this we believe Formula SAE is one of the best ways to facilitate the success of those students who choose to participate and creates an environment which promotes creativity, and motivates students to challenge themselves beyond the classroom.
