Each year, the Rudin Center hosts a variety of events to inspire new thinking and promote dialogue on current issues in transportation, and to recognize those individuals who continue to improve the field of transportation policy and management.
Annual Receptions: Each year the Center honors outstanding contributions to the field. This year, Rudin paid tribute to Mortimer L. Downey III, former Deputy Secretary at the U.S. Department of Transportation.
Seminars and Series: These events, including the Thinking and Doing Breakfast Series and the Urban Transportation and Planning Doctoral Series, bring policy experts and practitioners to campus for presentations and conversations with students and faculty.
