Outreach and Events
As one of three components of the Institute's mission, outreach has always played an important role in the ITS-Davis program. Researchers, students, and staff are committed to disseminating the Institute's research through presentations, seminars, conferences, and lectures, and at numerous public events. The outreach function benefits students and researchers by raising the Institute's public profile. And it benefits the larger community by bringing science to public debates and exposing the public to the exciting possibilities of tomorrow's transportation technologies.
ITS-Davis regularly brings together the world's leading stakeholders to set research directions and find answers for important global transportation policy issues. No one does this like ITS-Davis.

I am proud to have ITS-Davis in California's 1st Congressional District. Their programs address our nation's pressing need for world-class clean transportation research that will guide wise policy and planning.
