20 ACADEMIC YEAR 2011–2012 Applications for the academic year 2011–2012 were due in May 2011. Thirty-one submissions were received from students representing 24 dif- ferent universities. The applicant pool included 21 PhD candidates and 10 master’s degree candi- dates. The selection panel met in Washington, D.C., for 2 days in late July to evaluate the submittals. Eleven applicants were selected, each of whom would receive a stipend of $10,000 for successful completion of a research paper on the subject chosen by the applicant. For the first time, one stipend was shared by two students who were working together on one study. Completed papers were considered for presentation at the TRB Annual Meeting, and outstanding papers were selected for publication in the Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 2325. In the list that follows, the name of the student author appears first, followed by the degree earned (in parentheses), the names of academic advisers or others who made specific contributions to the paper, the name of the university, and the title of the final paper as published in the Transportation Research Record. Abstracts of these papers are available in ACRP Research Results Digest 19, which can be accessed online at www.trb.org by searching on “ACRP RRD 19.” 1. Sakib bin Salam (Master’s) and B.

TRB’s Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Research Results Digest 25: Graduate Research Award Program on Public-Sector Aviation Issues Update: 2008–2017 provides initial information for the 2016–2017 academic year of the Graduate Research Award Program on Public-Sector Aviation Issues (ACRP Project 11-04).

The report also includes abstracts for student papers from the 2015–2016, 2014-2015, and 2013–2014 academic years, and lists papers from prior academic years beginning in 2008–2009. Abstracts for the earlier papers are available in ACRP RRD 14 and ACRP RRD 19.

The program, sponsored by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration and administered by the ACRP, is designed to encourage applied research on airport-related aviation system issues and to foster the next generation of aviation community leaders. Under the program, up to ten awards of $10,000 each are made to full-time graduate students for successful completion of a research paper on public-sector airport-related aviation issues during the academic year.

Candidates must be full-time students enrolled in a graduate degree program at a North American accredited institution of higher learning during the academic year. Successful papers are presented at the TRB Annual Meeting following completion of the program, and exceptional papers have been published in subsequent volumes of the Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board.
