Capstone
Getting Started
Welcome to the capstone team! At BYU many majors, including Mechanical Engineering, require students to learn about and prepare for the work force through a capstone project. Students entering their senior year apply to be on the capstone team. Once on the team BYU Racing will provide the students with a project that will help the car and they will work together Monday-Friday 8-10am the entire school year (Fall & Winter semesters) focused on that project. This project will vary year to year , however our capstone team is currently working on a high voltage battery system. Below you will find some resources to learn more.
