Join us as Alan presents "Driving the Future: Integrating Electric Vehicle Technologies into Automotive Education"!
As the automotive industry rapidly transitions to electric mobility, equipping the next generation of professionals with the skills and knowledge to succeed has never been more critical. In this keynote, Dr. Alan Taub, Director of the University of Michigan’s Electric Vehicle Center, will explore innovative strategies for integrating EV technologies into automotive curricula at the high school and college levels.
Drawing from the EV Center’s Education and Workforce Development initiatives, Dr. Taub will highlight efforts to prepare students for careers in electric mobility, including curriculum development partnerships, bootcamps for educators, and hands-on training opportunities. Attendees will also learn how the Center’s technology project portfolio connects academic research to real-world applications, offering educators actionable insights to inspire and engage their students.
Join us to discover how we can collectively drive the future of automotive education and empower the next generation of EV innovators.
