The Battery Workforce Challenge is a three-year student competition, running from Fall 2023 to Fall 2026, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy, Stellantis, and Argonne National Laboratory. In this challenge, 12 universities and vocational schools across North America compete to design, build, test, and integrate an advanced EV battery pack into a production Stellantis vehicle. McMaster University, in collaboration with Mohawk College, is leading efforts in battery module development, BMS software, thermal management, and system integration, preparing students to lead the future of electrified mobility.
