You will be working with the latest state-of-the-art technologies and you will be developing new technologies. Electrical engineers are always at the cutting edge in formulating innovative solutions for a very large variety of applications. LONGEVITY - You can pursue this career for life! There is never the pressure to look elsewhere or change fields a few years after graduation (as in other fields of study). You be the judge: is the number of electrical/electronic gadgets affecting your everyday life increasing or decreasing? SATISFACTION - Lifelong fulfillment! Electrical Engineering is an extremely fulfilling career in terms of the potential for making a meaningful contribution to the society in which we live. Add to that long term job security, a dynamic field with many exciting opportunities and the ability to positively impact many lives, it is difficult to find other careers which can be as rewarding. All this can be yours if you pursue Electrical Engineering. SALARY - The Tops! Starting (and sustaining) salaries for electrical engineering students with bachelor, masters and doctoral degrees are at the top of the list compared to their engineering and scientific disciplines.

History - SeattleEVA_Wiki The Seattle electric Vehicle Association was founded in 1979 on the heels of of clubs and organizations nation wide LIKE the Seattle electric Vehicle http://www.seattleeva.org/history.html
Extractions: The Seattle Electric Vehicle Association was founded in 1979 on the heels of this countries third gas crisis with the help of some of our founding fathers, Ray Nadreau and others who put an ad in local news papers advertising a meeting of " people interested in Electric Cars " to meet at the University of Washington Applied Physics building to help form a new EV club. Over 40 people showed up, and SEVA was born. One of their first public shows was in the mall at South Center. If memory serves me there were 3 cars there that week end. Interest grew, and before we knew it there were 3 EV dealers in town as well. Mycon Motors selling the little Camuta-Car from Florida, Steve Lough of Lough Motors selling the Lectric Leopard (Renault LeCar) from the original US Electricar of Massachusetts, and Sound Ford of Renton selling the Jet Industry Ford Escort electric car from Texas. In the years which followed, all the commercial dealers except Lough Motors more or less dropped out of the business, but the club pressed on, with long distance rallies, car shows at the Pacific Science Center, and later exhibits at the Seattle International Auto Show in the King Dome. Through our efforts, over the last 20 years, Tens of Thousands of people have heard of, and or seen electric cars in action, which otherwise would not have. It is only in the last few years that the major auto makers have seen the "hand writing on the wall" and made concerted efforts towards bringing EV's to the market place.

People did everything short of stealing the car to keep it, but GM would not allow the lease period to be extended. License plate reads SPAC SHP (Space Ship).

Extractions: folks! For much of the past 30 years, the EV clubs have been the backbone of the EV movement. While national organizations like the Electric Power Research Institute, the Electric Vehicle Association of the Americas, the U.S. Department of Energy, and the Envir onmental Protection Agency have been sponsoring research on EVs, the clubs and their members have been busy building and driving electric vehicles. This area will contain descriptions of and documents about these organizations and clubs. We'll try to collect some general information about the major players like EPRI, EVAA, DoE, and EPA, and members of those groups are welcome to add their recollecti ons to EV Online, but our primary focus will be on small organizations like the Electric Auto Association and its many local chapters. Start at the beginning with a description of the early history of the EAA by founder Walter Laski. Also, check out a digitized version of the original non-profit association application filed by the EAA. Bruce Parmenter sent word of recent press coverage of the activities of the speed demons in NEDRA . Ben Parker has generously sent us the newsletters of the Electric Vehicle Association of Southern California . How about your chapter? Tell us the story of your electric auto club; send us your newsletters and club documents; and we'll add your story to EV Online.

UMass Dartmouth - Mechanical Engineering - Zero Emission Cars The General Motors Impact, shown above, is an electric car. Student Activities, Student Affairs, Student clubs and organizations, Student Handbook http://www.umassd.edu/engineering/mechanical/mec_cars.cfm
Extractions: The General Motors Impact is an electric car. It is one of dozens of cars being developed that produce no polluting emissions. Zero-emissions Cars Most modern cars run by burning gasoline in an internal combustion engine. Recently there has been an increasing concern with the amount of pollution produced by engines of this type. Mechanical engineers have been responsible for making these engines more efficient in recent years, and in reducing emissions, but there is an increasing public desire to eliminate polluting emissions entirely. This is most clearly demonstrated by California's law requiring a certain percentage of the cars sold in California to be "zero-emissions cars" by the year 2000. The General Motors Impact, shown above, is an electric car. Mechanical engineers at large automotive companies such as GM and Ford are working on improving electric cars. There are also other models for emission free cars. Some companies are trying to develop cars that run on butane or propane. These cars will produce no more pollution than a gas stove and will also run virtually silently. In all of these projects mechanical engineers play a vital role as they design new engines and lighter bodies for these cars of the future.
