Empowering the Next Generation of Automotive Innovators
The goal of our Electrifying the Future of Automotive program is to support and inspire the next generation of automotive leaders who are propelling the industry forward. As part of our focus on supporting science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education, Perficient is empowering college students to design, build, and compete with the next generation of formula-style vehicles, notably electric vehicles (EVs), in national and global events. 
Perficient’s involvement goes beyond just a partnership. Our experts actively engage with students, providing invaluable insights into the workings of automotive companies, discussing career opportunities, and offering hands-on support as teams compete to push the boundaries of automotive engineering.
“The Texas A&M SAE Formula Electric Team’s mission is to design, build, and test a competitive electric formula-style race car. We aim to foster a sustainable learning environment with multidisciplinary operations in order to execute industry-relevant projects,” said Holden Sparr, Texas A&M team representative. “Perficient’s partnership is more than a sponsorship; it’s an engaging collaboration that directly contributes to providing practical, hands-on experiences and learning opportunities vital for empowering the next generation of engineers.”
