The Battery Workforce Challenge is a three-year student competition, from Fall 2023 to Fall 2026, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy, Stellantis, and Argonne National Laboratory. In this competition, twelve universities and vocational schools from North America compete to design, build, test, and integrate an advanced electric vehicle (EV) battery pack into a production Stellantis vehicle. This challenge is designed to train the next generation of engineers and vocational specialists in EV battery technology beyond the classrooms, allowing students to gain invaluable engineering, manufacturing, and battery testing skills while practicing cross-discipline collaboration. Universities and vocational schools will build authentic, deep, and lasting relationships by working together during this program. Through the development of this project, students will face complex battery design and manufacturing challenges to solve, which will help them develop the necessary skills to face their future battery and engineering careers. Our purpose as the Cal State LA – Cerritos College team participating in the Battery Workforce Challenge is to educate and train the next generation of engineers and vocational specialists in EV batteries, providing hands-on experience and cross-disciplinary collaboration through the designing, building, testing, and integration of the best-possible advanced EV battery pack into a production Stellantis vehicle.
