Nippon Institute of Technology participates in the "Student Formula Japan 2022-Manufacturing and Design Competition-".We won 5th place overall and 3rd place in the Energy Conservation Award, defeating many strong schools.It also won the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association Chairman's Award and the Shizuoka Prefecture Governor's Award.
The project team of the "Formula Kobo", which was established by Nippon Institute of Technology as part of the College Meister Program, achieved outstanding results this time.We plan, design and manufacture a new formula car every year and participate in the Student Formula Japan Tournament.
The competition was held at the Ogasayama General Sports Park (Ecopa) in Shizuoka Prefecture for the static judging (online) in late August and the dynamic judging over five days from September 8th to 9th.Unlike previous years, the schedule was such that practice runs and static tests were conducted at the same time, but the team worked together to achieve the goals of "complete all events and finish the race" and "ranked 6th overall." However, he advanced to endurance and achieved the completion of all events.He also finished 10th overall, surpassing his goal.The team commented, "I am convinced that the skills and experiences that have been passed down from seniors to juniors over the years have resulted in results."The next competition will set even higher goals and challenge.
According to Nippon Institute of Technology, the College Meister Program is a practical engineering education program that can be learned from the first year of admission. Since being selected for the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology's "Distinguished University Education Support Program" in 2005, it has been a practical engineering education that provides hands-on experience of actual manufacturing rather than virtual experience (simulation), from planning to design, drafting, production and construction. have practicedStudents form a team and acquire both the qualities of a specialist, such as the specialized techniques and theories required of a Meister, and the grounding of a generalist, such as the negotiation and schedule management skills necessary to promote a project.There are about 500 "College Meisters" who have completed the program while in school, and there are currently 13 workshops, including the Formula Workshop.
