Materials Science and Engineering Professor Tim Chambers working with molten metals in the MSE Advanced Lab in the Herbert H. Dow Engineering Building on the North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on Friday afternoon, February 17, 2023. The floor of the lab where the pour will happen has a layer of sand on it to protect it in case of spills.
The Advanced Lab is home to MSE 360, a course about structural materials used for building everything from vehicles to buildings and beyond. In the first half of the course, students learn standard alloys before moving into design. MSE 360 is an opportunity to gain experience in both theory and application.

MRacing’s Drivetrain Director Zuoheng “Henry” He, and Sujay Racha, the monocoque lead, sit in the monocoque using their body weight to help with the demolding at the Wilson Student Team Project Center on the North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on Thursday evening, February 2, 2023.
The demolding process took hours keeping students at the Wilson until after 10 p.m. The Winter term is always one of the busiest times of year at the Wilson Center as student teams move from theoretical design into production in preparation for competition season.
