BMW As the original partner with Clemson University in this exciting project, BMW Manufacturing is proud of the solutions that are coming out of CU-ICAR. In 2003, BMW pledged $10 million to Clemson to endow professorships in the graduate automotive engineering program and under the Research Centers of Excellence Act, the state of South Carolina matched the pledge, generating $20 million for the school. In keeping with BMW's original vision, the research and development being carried out at CU-ICAR today is laying the foundation for tomorrow's next big discovery. Whether it is a breakthrough technology pioneered by the Automotive Safety Research Institute that will save countless lives, or the sought-after secret of hydrogen cell technology that saves our natural resources, the seeds are being sown. |
