40 Years of NCAT: Inside the Research Center Built for Asphalt

What does it take to build a world-class research institution? Former and current NCAT Directors, Ray Brown and Randy West join us to tell the story of a two-person operation to a 50+ person research powerhouse. Ray and Randy walk through the industry shift that made NCAT necessary and share major research breakthroughs that reshaped how state DOTs design and fund roads. Looking ahead, Ray and Randy share their predictions for the asphalt pavement industry, along with why investing in the next generation of pavement engineers, through programs like the Road Scholars Fellowship, matters as much as any single research finding.
