The 2019-2020 school year has been full of success for the ITE Student Chapter at New York University. Major highlights include:
NYU-ITE also won the inaugural Student Chapter Momentum Award, which is meant to recognize a student chapter that has experienced the greatest momentum (or most improvement) in the past year. The award was given to the ITE Student Chapter that addresses specific improvements and/or special efforts in the above core areas. Over the past year, the NYU-ITE student organization has participated, in and hosted many events, which has led to increased an profile among the transportation professional community in New York City. Great efforts were undertaken specifically towards increased attendance at meetings, student development of the technical skills required to succeed in their internships or places of work and applying knowledge learned from ITE presentations and Chapter-provided resources.
NYU ITE will be honored during the Institute of Transportation’s biggest event of the year—ITE’s Annual Meeting & Exhibition. This year’s conference will be held in a highly interactive virtual event format that will take place over the first three weeks of August. The organization’s achievements will also be mentioned in ITE Special Edition Spotlite, in ITE Journal, and other outlets.
