2022 TES Student Mixer

On October 19th, IL-ITE teamed up with the UIUC ITE chapter for a student mixer at the Illinois Traffic Engineering and Safety (TES) Conference. Students had an opportunity to ask questions to professionals from across the state in additon to networking for professionals. We had a great time hanging out with students, in addition to having a great discussion on the future of transportation, ways to showcase your value to new employers/interviewers, and a big discussion on the future of AV's.

Big thanks to Ray Benekohal and the UIUC Student ITE chapter for having us, and ensuring that the future of the transportation industry is remaining strong!
