	About PACE

	Partners for the Advancement of Collaborative Engineering Education (PACE) is a collaboration of numerous partners with one main goal. This goal is to link global operations including that of GM, EDS, Sun Microsystems, and UGS to key academic institutions around the world. These specially selected universities have been chosen to particpate in the development of the automotive product lifecycle managment (PLM). PLM is a uniquely integrated approach to every aspect of a product from its design to its disposal. PACE is committed to the areas of:
	Requirements and planning (concept development) Styling (conceptualization) Product engineering (detailed design) Simulation (validation, optimization) Manufacturing engineering (tooling, machining, 3D plant layout) Managed development environment (product datamanagement, supply chain management, digital collaboration) For more information on PACE, please visit their website at PACEpartners.org.
