ITE Manitoba Kean Lew Memorial Student Presentation Competition

Although it’s still many months away, we want to give you an early heads-up about this exciting opportunity! The Kean Lew Memorial Student Presentation Competition is designed to spark interest in transportation and give students the chance to present a transportation project of their choice to peers and industry professionals.

The competition will feature up to five 15-minute presentations, each followed by a short Q&A, plus time to network with professionals after the event. Cash prizes will be awarded to the top three presenters, so start thinking about a project you’d like to research and share...it’s never too early to begin! More details will be sent in the coming months.
