The aim of the Institute is to become a highly technological, internationally recognized centre of excellence, where academia and industry in close collaboration develop new technologies for intelligent autonomous systems.
The Maersk Mc-Kinney Moller Institute was established in 1997 as part of the Faculty of Science of the University of Southern Denmark. In 1999 the Institute moved into new premises donated by the A.P. Møller and Chastine Mc-Kinney Møllers Foundation.

Formula Students - a Race Car Project
Since 2007, The Maersk Mc-Kinney Moller Institute has participated in this very exciting training project, where students from all over the world compete to design and build the best race car. The project involves many different fields of study e.g. production technology, mechanics, electronics and robotics. In addition to vocational experience, the students obtain knowledge on crossdisciplinary and intercultural cooperation in connection with the competitions and the preceding practical work. The Formula Student competitions are held at well-known race tracks such as Silverstone in England and Hockenheim in Germany. Further information on the Formula Student project and University of Southern Denmark's Formula Student Team is available on
