CS&E Graduate Student Ravishankar Sivalingam has been selected to receive an ITS Minnesota Graduate Student Award. The award rewards exceptional students for their interest in the transportation industry and intelligent transportation systems.

Intelligent Transportation Systems, or ITS, encompass a broad range of wireless and wire-line communications-based information, control and electronics technologies. When integrated into the transportation system infrastructure, and in vehicles themselves, these technologies help monitor and manage traffic flow, reduce congestion, provide alternate routes to travelers, enhance productivity, and save lives, time and money.

Sivalingam will receive a $1500 award in a ceremony at the ITS Annual Meeting on March 8th.
