ALBUQUERQUE, NM - UNM's race car design team may not have the resources of its competitors, but the engineering students say they are ready to face off against colleges from around the world next week.
"It's about learning how to engineer a product and build it," UNM Professor of Mechanical Engineering John Russell said about the school's team.
This is a tough lesson UNM engineering students practice over three semesters before heading to an international competition where they will race their Formula-style, student-built car against 80 other colleges from around the globe.
