Meet The Team Rémi Durocher -Manufacturing Lead -5 years - Mechanical Engineering -Team Member for 3years... What is your role on the team? : I oversee the planning and manufacturing of all the parts that are built for the car, ensuring that all the parts are made per the designs and are made on time for assembly. What does UMSAE mean to you? : For me, UMSAE has been an opportunity to learn and develop the skills before entering industry. Its given me that chance to apply what I've learned in the classroom to real life problems, as well as gain hands on skills that I've come to use in my everyday life. On top of that, UMSAE has helped me land some pretty cool opportunities and network with people from around the world! Favorite Part of your section/role? : Coming up with innovate ways to manufacture parts. Sometimes you don't have all the resources to build something the first way you thought of and need to think outside the box for solutions. Any advice to new students looking to join UMSAE? : The more interest and involvement you show, the more exciting opportunities that will come your way! We're always have cool projects to work on and are always looking for people to help out. Never be afraid that you don't have the knowledge or experience to work on these projects All the member on the teams, no matter their position, started in the same place. We are all here to support and work with each other towards the common goal of building a kickass racecar! #UMSAE #fsae #formulasae #formulastudent #engineering #mecheng #manitoba #uofm #polarbearracing #pbr #carbon #fsaecanada #racecar #design

It's a really great group of people that dedicate their limited spare time to work on cool projects! Favorite Part of your section/role? : This section is made up of various sub-assemblies which are all very different from each-other, it is a really versatile section!
