Project SERVE

Another great highlight featuring retired U.S. Marine Corps veteran Josh Doyle and the adaptive e-bike project developed through Project S.E.R.V.E.!

Thank you to KPBS for spotlighting San Diego State University's Senior Design Day and sharing the story behind this collaboration between Josh and a team of engineering students who designed a custom adaptive pedal system around his specific mobility needs.

Projects like this are a reminder of what can happen when thoughtful engineering is shaped around a person’s everyday life.

FOX 5 San Diego recently highlighted San Diego State University's Senior Design Day, featuring a Project S.E.R.V.E. collaboration centered around retired U.S. Marine Corps veteran Josh Doyle.

Students from SDSU developed a custom adaptive e-bike system designed specifically around Josh’s range of motion and mobility needs after finding that existing systems on the market didn’t fully support what he needed.

The project quickly became more than an engineering exercise. Josh was now able to get back to riding again and spend more active time with his kids.

We’re proud to see projects like this receiving broader attention and helping showcase what student-led engineering can make possible.
