What is Chem-e-Car?

Chem-E-Car is a team-project-based club where we design and build a shoebox-sized car powered by our chosen chemical reaction(s). We take our car to competition and the car must safely run a specific distance and stop while carrying weights. All majors are welcome (not just Chemistry/(Bio)ChemE)! It is a great opportunity to learn and build chemical, mechanical, electrical, programming, design, and team-oriented skill sets.
