Formula Slug—UCSC's Formula SAE Collegiate Chapter
Help Formula Slug Go to Formula SAE Electric Competition in June!
Formula Slug is a student-led engineering club committed to fostering a diverse community that includes both STEM and non-STEM enthusiasts. Our primary mission revolves around the design, manufacture, and competition of formula-style electric race cars.
This year, we're all in! We've secured our spot at the FSAE Electric Competition, set to take place this June in Brooklyn, Michigan. Picture this: 75 colleges from all corners of the world, each with their unique electric race cars, all converging for an engineering showcase. Now, here's the exciting part—the funds we gather during Spring Give will be channeled directly into fueling our manufacturing efforts and ensuring that we have the means to travel and compete. Your support during this Spring Give is a direct investment in our journey to the competition.
