It's the Automotive Engineering Technology program here at Minnesota State Univ. Mankato. I enrolled here when I took the tour and saw and engine dyno, chassis dyno, Superflow bench, composites lab, small aerodynamics testing chamber etc etc.. I, however, started working and did not finish that degree but I think it would be worthwile for you to check out.
One particular friend of mine(Matt Patrick)who graduated from that program is currently working as a Product developer for
Zex .
Good luck in the persuit.
