Ever considered transportation/mobility as potential research area? Or looked for a team to join and use your expertise for the topic areas?
If either of these questions piqued your curiosity, join the Michigan Tech Transportation Institute (MTTI) for a general members and friends luncheon next Thursday (Sept. 28) from 12-1:30 p.m. in the Ballroom B2/B3 of the Memorial Union.
The luncheon is open to all researchers on campus.
After lunch, we will briefly introduce the Institute and its services, and then discuss three upcoming transportation research opportunities:
- The upcoming federal ARPA-Infrastructure (ARPA-I) program,
- MDOT’s request for research ideas toward future funding cycles, and
- Michigan Tech’s participation in the development of the largest surface transportation center by ENSCO and Federal Transportation Administrations in Pueblo, Colorado.
Luncheon Schedule:
- 12:00-12:30 p.m. — Lunch
- 12:30-12:45 p.m. — Brief MTTI Update
- 12:45-1:30 p.m. — Transportation funding opportunities: ARPA-I, MDOT, TTC Pueblo/ENSCO
Please complete the MTTI General Membership Meeting form by Friday (Sept. 22) to confirm your participation, so we can get a proper luncheon count.
