Faculty and staff invited to discussion on federal transportation priorities, Purdue strategy

Purdue faculty and staff are encouraged to join a virtual discussion sponsored by the Office of Research about the evolving federal landscape for surface transportation research. The event will be held from noon to 1 p.m. June 18 and will be led by Lewis-Burke Associates LLC, which represents Purdue in federal matters.

With major federal transportation programs set to be reauthorized, Congress is beginning to shape future research and funding priorities. The session will provide faculty and staff with brief congressional updates and outline areas of potential interest for Purdue. The discussion will also help inform how Purdue teams can align with forthcoming opportunities and position future projects.

Registration for the discussion is available online.
