RIVERSIDE, Calif. – The seminar series also includes a 41st Congressional District Forum and a lecture by Jurupa Valley’s city manager.
All events are free and open to the public.
Huerta, a UC Riverside alumnus, will discuss “The Future of Aviation in the United States” on Friday, Oct. 17, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. in the Genomics Auditorium. Parking in Lot 6 is free. A reception will precede the seminar at 4:30 p.m. Reservations are requested as seating is limited and may be made here.
In addition to discussing the challenges facing aviation in the U.S., Huerta will talk to students about experiences that helped shaped his career and the need for students to learn to build coalitions and collaborate across the political spectrum to solve the challenges facing government.
As FAA administrator, Huerta is responsible for the safety and efficiency of the largest aerospace system in the world, overseeing a budget of nearly $16 billion and more than 45,000 employees. He was nominated by President Barack Obama in March 2012 to lead the FAA and was sworn in Jan. 7, 2013. Previously, Huerta served as the FAA’s deputy administrator from 2010 to 2011.
