Education

The Center's educational goals are to:

• Increase the number of transportation related courses in various disciplines
• Increase the opportunities for student experiential learning through research and internships.
• Provide options for students to obtain degrees with an "emphasis" in one of several transportation focus areas, i.e. logistics, transportation finance etc.

The rapid increase of logistics employment in the Inland Empire requires the development of transportation curriculum which is responsive to this increased demand for logistics and transportation skills from the public and private sectors.

Reflecting the Center's theme the courses will emphasize a management approach to transportation. Such emphasis will be in context of multidisciplinary course work including economics, public finance, environmental analysis, urban planning, and information systems.
