The Department of Technology and Society and the NSF Center for Thermal Spray Research are co-sponsoring a one-day workshop on emerging critical issues in civil transportation, for both land and marine. As our transportation infrastructures face decay and with ever present maintenance problems, it is imperative to formulate an agenda for research directed at real problems. It is also essential to introduce a new generation of policy specialists and engineers to the challenges facing transportation. This workshop is thus dedicated to today’s and tomorrow’s transportation specialists with the premise that one must clearly understand the problems in order to invent solutions. With this in mind, experts in various areas of transportation policy and technology have been asked to present their views of the current and emerging problems and approaches which need to be considered by transportation authorities, both states and federal. Additionally, there will be an exhibition of student projects in the field of transportation.
