In 2014, graduate students completing their strategic capstone project with Professors Mark Shaughnessy, George Schatz, and Dr. Donald Maier in the Loeb-Sullivan School (LSS) of International Business and Logistics, drafted an extensive strategic plan for Bangor International Airport (BGR) to build out as a hub for freight transportation.
“Bangor International is primarily a passenger airport, but BGR management and our faculty felt it had a possibility of becoming a freight airport as well,” says Shaughnessy.
