Council****
** **
Attached is a Call for Abstracts for a session the TRB-wide Young Members
Council is sponsoring at the 2014 Annual Meeting entitled "Emerging
Professionals: Investing in our Future." This session is aimed at Young
Members (age 35 and under) and requires an abstract instead of a full
paper. The intent of this session is to get exposure for transportation
research or projects and to provide students and young members the
experience of presenting at TRB in a podium or poster session. Therefore,
the abstracts should reflect ongoing research, case studies, or other
suitable topics being conducted by graduate students (both Master and
Doctorate) and practicing young members across all transportation modes and
TRB Groups that are not fully complete or in a format ready for a
traditional TRB paper peer review.
This session will create a learning environment for each activity leading
to and beyond the presentation by providing coaching, constructive input,
and encouragement along each step including: feedback on the abstracts,
guidance on effective and clear presentations, brief presentation feedback
from a hand-selected panel, and ideas and suggestions on enhancing the
presentation delivery.
*Abstracts are due by September 10, 2013.* Submission instructions and
additional information about the Session is included in the attachment.
Please feel free to share this opportunity with anyone you think might be
interested.
Thank you,
Bevan Kirley
Safety and Systems Users Group Representative to the Young Members Council
