Square One Education Network

A conduit to satisfying industry demand for technology leaders, Square One education experts design and implement projects that cultivate dynamic and rewarding learning environments. These projects, based upon the varying curriculum of each school and region, create a diverse portfolio of innovative, technology rich education.

A leading program within Square One is the Innovative Vehicle Design (IVD) "Signature Series" of projects enabling high school student teams to build full-size, hybrid-electric and mini battery-powered vehicles, including underwater and autonomous vehicles. Co-sponsored—both financially and with engineering expertise—by an industry partner, the IVD programs spur healthy competition while demanding innovative design and building skills from today’s youth.

Currently, schools in Southfield, Bad Axe, Ferndale, Big Rapids, Melvindale, Pontiac and Dearborn are participating in the full-scale competition. The smaller competitions are linking schools on a larger scale, including: Portage, Roscommon, Traverse City, Manistique, Port Hope, Utica, Waterford, Dollar Bay, Alpena, Flint, Spring Lake, and more!
