The document provides an overview of the Mid-American Transportation Center (MATC) Scholars Program, which aims to recruit and retain underrepresented students in transportation fields. The inaugural MATC Scholars Conference was held in 2010 with 14 student participants. Subsequent conferences grew in size and included universities from across the country. The 2021 virtual conference had the largest turnout with over 90 registered. The 2023 conference at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln aims to continue supporting diversity in transportation by providing career guidance and preparation for graduate studies to underrepresented students.
This document provides guidance on customizing one's education in graduate school. It recommends that students:
1) Take a personal inventory of their skills, experiences, courses, and projects to gain clarity on their career interests.
2) Identify opportunities during each semester and summer for gaining information, practice, and exposure in their area of interest through activities like internships, research, and leadership roles.
3) Meet with an advisor to discuss next steps based on where they are in the program and ensure their portfolio provides evidence of the skills and experiences needed for their desired career. The goal is to customize an education that prepares students for their targeted field.

In this talk, Dr. Haitao Li will introduce the food supply chain configuration problem (FSCCP) to optimize the tactical-level mode selection and inventory positioning decisions for a general multi-echelon food supply chain. Computational studies show that the optimal FSCCP solutions significantly outperform two heuristic solutions that focus solely on cost or quality. Managerial insights are obtained on the impacts of key input parameters on the optimal configuration and performance metrics.
