About Us

NMU SAE Baja Racing is a student led program based out of the Jacobetti Complex, where team members design, build, and race offroad machines in usually less than ideal conditions.

Baja SAE is a national business and engineering competition that enables students to design, fabricate, and race small, single-seater Baja cars against other school Baja teams, both regionally and nationally. In addition to the design and racing aspects of the competition, there is also a business presentation that looks at things like sales, marketing, and financials. While many of our active team members are a part of the Engineering Technology department, we also have members from a variety of other majors who can put their skills to use for the benefit of the team. Our engineering majors design and build the car, our art and design majors create team promotional material, and our business majors handle the team's budget and marketing. Baja Racing is a fantastic resume builder and will set you ahead of your peers in the engineering technology program.
