Leadership & Operations
We are Purdue Solar Racing, a student-run organization at Purdue University that designs, builds, and races solar-powered vehicles in national and international competitions.
In addition to developing advanced vehicle systems, we participate in a variety of outreach events to educate the local community about the possibilities of sustainable transportation.
Our multidisciplinary team consists of a diverse set of students who work in business, operations, and engineering functions.
