The Engineering Technology program at Wayne State partnered with Macomb Community College to develop an integrated education and industrial-based training program under a National Science Foundation grant. The program will be part of MCC's new Center for Alternative Fuels, which will train students and provide a forum for advancing discussion and exploration of alternative fuels. Under the program, hybrid electric vehicle technology will be integrated into Macomb 's associate degree curriculum in automotive technology. The Center will kick off its role as a discussion forum with a daylong symposium on Oct. 5 at MCC's South Campus in Warren .
