Baja SAE

Baja SAE challenges engineering students to design and build an off-road vehicle that will survive the severe punishment of rough terrain.

Our goal is to design and build a prototype of an all-weather, rugged, single-seat, off-road recreational vehicle intended for sale to the nonprofessional weekend off-road enthusiast.
