2024 OKLAHOMA TRANSPORTATION SUMMER SYMPOSIUM

We are excited to announce the upcoming 2024 Oklahoma Transportation Symposium, which will take place on Tuesday, July 30, 2024, from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm at the Hamm Institute for American Energy in the OKC Innovation District, located at 300 NE 9th Street, Oklahoma City, OK 73104.

The Oklahoma Department of Transportation sponsors the Annual Oklahoma Summer Transportation Symposium, which is hosted by the Oklahoma State University (OSU) in collaboration with the University of Oklahoma (OU). This symposium serves as a valuable forum to discuss transportation issues in Oklahoma for engineers interested in tackling these challenges and to provide civil engineering students with a better understanding of career options. Symposium topics will cover a wide range of transportation-related subjects, such as bridges, pavements, materials, planning, construction, geotechnical, and environmental issues. In particular, research addressing Oklahoma's transportation challenges and topics aligned with the SPTC theme, which emphasizes enhancing durability and prolonging infrastructure lifespan amidst extreme weather patterns and climate change, are encouraged.

We are excited to announce that we are soliciting presentations on transportation-related research for the symposium. Faculty members, industrial practitioners, graduate and undergraduate student researchers are all cordially invited to participate. The symposium will feature both podium and poster sessions, and we especially encourage undergraduate and graduate students to participate by giving presentations or submitting posters.

To be considered for a presentation slot, please email your presentation title, authors’ names, a short bio for the presenter, and your preference of podium or poster presentation to Joshua Li () or Royce Floyd () no later than Friday, July 12, 2024.

Although there are limited podium presentation slots available, any topics not included as presentations will be invited as posters. Precedence will be given to presentations within the theme areas of the symposium and based on the order they are received. All presentation PPTs, both podium and poster, should be submitted to the chairs by Thursday, July 25, 2024, and physical posters should be brought to the symposium before its start.

Registration is free, and ADA accessible parking, breakfast, and lunch are all complimentary. To register, please submit your registration form no later than 12:00 pm on July 19, 2024 (Friday). Attending this event will grant you five free Professional Development Hours (PDHs).

We look forward to welcoming you to the 2024 Oklahoma Transportation Symposium.
