University Liaison

Each Texas state-supported University wishing to participate in TxDOT’s research program must name a central point of contact to handle communication and administration. This contact is the individual designated as the University Liaison.
The University Liaison:
  • Coordinates all research and implementation program matters between the University and RTI, including for example:
    • RTI policies and procedures,
    • requests for proposals,
    • proposal submissions,
    • Project Agreements and associated correspondence,
    • requests for specific expenditure or other approvals, as outlined in RTI’s
      University Handbook
      , and
    • project deliverables.
  • Coordinates research and implementation program matters within their University.
