Title: Young Professionals Lead Transportation Innovations
Accession Number: 01759366
Record Type: Component
Record URL: Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: Traditional fields of study are no longer enough to address the challenges of today's transportation systems. To address safety, equity, public health, environmental sustainability, funding and financing, and more, the transportation industry needs to attract a wider array of perspectives and expertise. Many of those currently in transportation describe their career progression as having “fallen into” transportation. Encouraging this “falling” should continue, but the industry also needs to continue to reach out to and invest in seemingly unrelated fields. Adding greater diversity of fields and individuals to any industry provides a wide array of benefits. Those from less traditional educational fields bring new concepts and creative solutions to longstanding issues. Young professionals will join the transportation industry from all directions, and this influx can only benefit the industry.
