The Pavement Research Institute (PRI) has a new director.
Michael I. Darter, Ph.D., P.E., is Emeritus Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Illinois and principal engineer with Applied Research Associates (ARA), Inc.
Darter has been involved in pavement engineering throughout his entire 40-year career and is an internationally recognized authority in highway and airport infrastructure.
“Through his extensive work in research, teaching, and consulting, Professor Darter has contributed significant new knowledge and many widely used engineering tools,” says Robert Johns, CTS director.
Darter will have a 25 percent appointment while continuing his work with ARA, says John Gulliver, CE department head.
Darter succeeds Erland Lukanen, who accepted a position in Mn/DOT’s Office of Materials.
