The University of Windsor’s Centre for Hybrid Automotive Research and Green Energy (CHARGE) lab hosted Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau on Tuesday.

Trudeau was greeted by University of Windsor president Robert Gordon, vice-president research and innovation Chris Houser, dean of engineering Bill Van Heyst, and professor Narayan Kar, Canada Research Chair in Electrified Vehicles.

After a tour of the facility, Trudeau took part in a roundtable discussion with engineering students and faculty from the CHARGE Lab. Students discussed their fields of study and answered the visitor’s questions about their research.
