HAN Automotive Research (HAN-AR) was founded with the objective of strengthening the connection between education and the professional field. This "connection" is best established when students are directly involved in current innovative issues from the field. HAN-AR facilitates this connection by focusing on the execution of research and development challenges from the business community.
