Design students get a crack at the Ferrari of the future

Students from four of the top design schools have had the opportunity to submit 20 proposals for future Ferrari designs, with the entries being judged by a panel that includes members of the automaker’s design staff. Those that are selected will get an opportunity to work for Ferrari or Pininfarina; either of these would be a hell of a first job assignment. The designs are currently on display at Galleria Ferrari in Maranello. When I was in school for engineering, the most meaningful educational experiences were chances at solving real-world problems. Let me say, though, that we definitely never had a chance to do anything like this.
