Description: For the second year we will be co-hosting the MCAPA/SAE Asian delegation in April 2008 for a one day symposium event.

Its mission is to promote academic and professional connection and collaboration between the automotive, business and academic institutions in Taiwan, R.O.C. and those in Detroit Metro areas and in the State of Michigan. MCAPA, a non-profit organization, is run by a Board that consists of up to ten Board members. The Board meets regularly and hosts workshops, trainings, and symposium to MCAPA members and local community members throughout the year. Each year MCAPA hosts a delegation of Asian Auto executives who come to the Detroit SAE Congress in April. As part of their event lineup, MCAPA organizes an auto-related symposium for the delegates. Last year the SBA was honored to partner with MCAPA to host the symposium and Michael Grieves represented the SBA by presenting a well received seminar on Product Lifecycle Management to the delegation. Last year`s keynote speaker for the event was Joe Chao from Advanced Manufacturing Engineering at the DaimlerChrylser Corporation. MCAPA has again partnered with the SBA to co-host their event, tentatively set for April 15 in O'Dowd Hall. The delegation will attend a closed morning session organized by the MCAPA organization. This year, Xiaodong Deng, Joy Jiang and Hong Qian from our OU-SBA Faculty will present to the delegation in the afternoon. A panel discussion focusing on the topic of quality in the auto manufacturing sector, facilitated by Dr. Michael Grieves, will follow. Please mark your calendar and rsvp to Carrie Sliwinski (cmking@oakland.edu) if you can join us.
