Transportation in New Jersey Institute of Technology

Transportation professionals function in very complex environments characterized by ever-going changes in technological, regulatory, and legal frameworks. Transportation engineers plan, design, construct, operate, and improve transportation systems and infrastructure, focusing on elevating safety, mobility, and level of service associated with all modes of transportation.

Transportation engineers enable the movement of people and goods within our communities and throughout our world. They work closely with contractors, utility companies, and government agencies. They also work with local and regional planning boards to identify areas of growth and development, while looking for opportunities to alleviate traffic congestion. Once they understand the needs of drivers in a region, they design, develop, and estimate the cost of construction projects. Once a new plan has been funded, transportation engineers oversee a variety of subcontractors who build new roads, highways, and bridges. Once a project has been completed, transportation engineers assure citizens that roads are properly maintained and repaired. Throughout the process of serving the public, transportation engineers must comply with a myriad of local and federal policies for the safe construction and maintenance of transportation infrastructure.
