Auto Industry Battling Tech Companies For Best College Engineering Talent

An interesting piece of information from our College Dean, Charlie Jones.

The Detroit Free Press (9/21, Bomey) reports, "The auto industry is back on campus and hiring a different breed of engineer - those who can help invent the next generation of complex software that pushes the envelope on mpg, clean emissions and crash avoidance technologies." US, "Asian and European automakers and suppliers find themselves in a new recruitment arena battling Amazon, Apple, Facebook, SpaceX and others for the top software engineering talent." Car companies "don't just need engineers that understand horsepower and aerodynamics. For example, GM plans to hire up to 500 workers at a recently launched software center in Austin, Texas, home to IBM, Samsung and Facebook offices."
