In the meantime, airlines that want to use more low-emission sustainable aviation fuel will have to pay up to four times as much for it as they pay for conventional fuel, which could mean higher airfares for everyone. “It’s not clear how we are going to get there,” said Jan Brueckner, a professor and chair of the economics department at UC Irvine’s Institute of Transportation Studies.
The continuing success of the Samueli School of Engineering is fueled by the involvement of influential alumni and friends who promote its visibility and help secure philanthropic support to advance its goals of unleashing innovation, creating opportunities and inspiring ingenuity. The school's growing alumni ranks are making significant contributions to society in the fields of technology, business, academia, government, military and social causes.
