20 Ford employees gather for lunch to celebrate 20th anniversary of partnership between UM-Dearborn and Ford Motor Company About 20 Ford employees met Oct. 14 at the Fairlane Center for a luncheon to celebrate the 20th anniversary of an academic partnership between UM-Dearborn and Ford. UM-Dearborn and Ford collaborated on this program in the early-1990s in which Ford employees could obtain their bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering, while still working during the day. Since its inception, nearly 100 Ford employees have completed the program.
