Superiores de Monterrey, Toluca (Tecnologíco de Monterrey en Toluca), Siemens PLM

Software, GM Mexico and the GM PACE Team in Warren, MI during the week of July 23 – 28.

The PACE Annual Forum brings together industry representatives with faculty and students from all 65 PACE Institutions in 12 countries around the world for face-to-face collaboration, networking and innovation. Delegates report progress, share curriculum advancements and development, and discuss new technologies.

Session presentations by industry and university representatives encompass a variety of topics relevant to the PACE mission and conference theme, including global challenges, the latest industry trends, new technologies, PACE projects, and curriculum advancements.

The PACE global project competitions to be highlighted at this year’s conference:

Personal Urban Mobility Access (PUMA) Project Competition – In the first phase of the competition, engineering and industrial design students from 40 PACE Institutions in ten countries present design solutions that will address the first mile/last mile transportation needs for the aging population in a specific target market. The challenge: Global PACE Teams will create a first mile/last mile solution that is buildable and theoretically producible for mass-production using current or emerging technology within the delivery time of the project. Each team will be evaluated on how well they understand the social, economic and convenience issues of their chosen market and how well their proposed mobility solution(s) address those issues within the aging population.

Collaboration and Innovation Challenge Competition showcases new ideas and mobility related projects created by faculty and students at PACE Institutions.

Tips for Students at the PACE Annual Forum PACE extends a special welcome to each student at this year’s PACE Annual Forum! We hope you are excited to be part of the PACE Annual Forum, and we want you to enjoy the conference. Here are a few suggestions to help you make the most of the experience, and take advantage of the opportunities that are available.

Join us for the Welcome Reception on Sunday, July 23rd at 5:00 pm at the Cosmovitral. Registration will begin at 4:30 pm. This casual gathering is a great opportunity to meet students and faculty from other schools around the world, and to meet representatives from the PACE companies. Come enjoy the food and friendship.

Take time to meet and talk with the other people at the conference. Network with the students, faculty, and industry experts. Come to the Recruiting Session on Tuesday, July 25 to learn more about opportunities at some of the PACE companies. Bring your resume!

Monday and Tuesday are primarily dedicated to the PUMA project competition. If you are not part of a project team, we recommend that you attend the team presentations and learn how each group met the challenge to design a Personal Urban Mobility Access vehicle.

Tuesday - PACE Company Recruiting Event: As a PACE 2017 Global Forum attendee, you will be given the chance to network with the companies that sponsor PACE. General Motors, Siemens PLM Software, Autodesk, Oracle, Altair and ANSYS will give you the opportunity to speak with their professionals and/or recruiters about possible career opportunities and what it is like to work for their companies. Company contacts can also provide guidance on resume building and your future fulltime or internship job search! This event will take place on Tuesday, July 25 from 1:00 – 5:00pm. Please bring your resume for this event!

Be sure to attend the Wednesday and Thursday sessions! These two days after the PUMA project competition are filled with activities and presentations for faculty AND students. You can learn a lot from the presentations and workshops. Attendance at these sessions is required to obtain Travel Funding Reimbursement.

Executives from the PACE companies are here. Plan to attend their presentations, ask questions during Q&A, and even talk with them during lunch or breaks. What is the latest news from their company, how did they succeed in their career, what do they look for in new employees?

What if there are two activities scheduled at the same time? Professional conferences often offer two or more sessions at the same time in order to give attendees more options. The choice is yours – attend the session that interests you more, or that will enhance your skillset.

Friday, July 28 is “PACE Cultural Day.” Join other PACE delegates to visit local places of interest, and get to know each other better before everyone heads home. You may want to make plans with the students from another PACE school to sightsee or dine together.

Have fun! The Welcome Reception, Awards Dinner, and Friday Cultural Tours are opportunities to relax a little and enjoy yourself in the presence of friends.

We look forward to seeing you at the 2017 PACE Annual Forum!
