Dr. Schussler shares how the IECA University Partners Program helped shape her career, discusses impactful research findings such as improving sediment control performance through better installation practices rather than new products, and explains how hands-on training events, land grant outreach, and LTAP programs help bridge gaps between academia, industry, and regulators.
