Outstanding Student of the Year Awards Ceremony

The 10th Annual Outstanding Student of the Year Awards ceremony took place in January during the Transportation Research Board (TRB) 80th Annual Meeting in Washington, DC. For the past nine years, DOT has honored the most outstanding student from each UTC at a special ceremony held during TRB Week. Each student received a certificate presented by the Deputy Secretary and $1,000 from his/her UTC. Traditionally, all awardees have been affiliated with the UTC program administered by the Research and Special Programs Administration, with funding from the Federal Highway Administration and Federal Transit Administration. This year, in the spirit of "ONE DOT", the Department for the third time also honored an awardee from the Federal Aviation Administration's Air
