Mini Baja Project- UMBC undergraduates work with faculty members to design, build, and, race an all-terrain vehicle in the "Mini-Baja" competition. The Mini-Baja group uses the same software as Ford Motor Company to model and analyze the vehicle. The mini-baja experience is a great way for mechanical engineering students to apply lessons from the classroom to the real world.
