Warrior Racing
Warrior Racing is Wayne State University’s Formula SAE team, designing and manufacturing a high-performance open-wheel race car for competition
Formula SAE
Formula SAE is an international student design competition that challenges university teams to conceive, design, fabricate, develop and compete with formula-style vehicles. The competition evaluates cars based on both static design events (like cost, design, and business presentations) and dynamic on-track events (like acceleration, autocross, and endurance).
Wayne State University
Wayne State University, Michigan’s premier urban research institution, anchors its mission in access, excellence and opportunity. Located in Detroit’s Midtown, WSU combines world-class academics with a commitment to community impact. With more than 350 academic programs across 13 schools and colleges, the university empowers over 24,000 students to engage in discovery, innovation, and leadership that reaches well beyond the classroom.
James and Patricia Anderson College of Engineering
The James and Patricia Anderson College of Engineering builds on that mission by focusing on the future of engineering and technology. With more than 3,000 students across multiple departments, the college is recognized for its strong ties to industry, cutting-edge research and emphasis on experiential learning. Students gain real-world skills through co-ops, design projects, and partnerships with global companies, preparing them to become problem-solvers and innovators who drive progress in Detroit and around the world.
