Mary Barra, GM Senior Vice-President of
Global Product Development, confirmed the membership following a visit to the Stanford School of Engineering, where she spoke to faculty, students and researchers.
"Joining the Center for Automotive Research at Stanford is a natural fit for GM," said Barra. "In order to create the world's best vehicles, we make every effort to remain on the cutting edge of automotive development. Our membership in CARS will allow us both to expand and share our knowledge with students, faculty and industry partners as we work together to move the industry forward."
The Center for Automotive Research at Stanford is a community of faculty and students from a range of disciplines aimed at discovering, building, and deploying critical ideas and innovations for the next generation of cars and drivers. Unique in its infrastructure, CARS provides shared resources for research, teaching, student project teams and new educational initiatives across many research centers, including the law and business schools.
"GM is dedicated to helping develop the next generation of science, technology, engineering and mathematics professionals and advancing the industry," Barra added. "The Center for Automotive Research at Stanford offers us not only the chance to contribute to the education of future leaders, but also cultivate new and creative vehicle technology solutions."
This membership fortifies GM's long-standing relationship with Stanford. Barra is one of many GM leaders to have earned a degree from Stanford, which is one of GM's key engineering and business recruitment institutions.
