Transport Institute is a world-renowned research institute in transportation and logistics. The Institute actively undertakes outstanding collaborative scholarly research, facilitating the transfer of knowledge to professional communities, and trains graduate students to become competent scholars in transportation, logistics, and supply chain.

Advanced Satellite Integration Facility, was created in partnership with Magellan Aerospace fostering meaningful relationships between academia and industry. The facility supports research, development, construction and testing of satellite systems and components.

Grands projets

Transport Nodal System focuses on the development of transport nodes and nodal systems, focusing on economic, operational, management, planning, policy, regulation, and sustainability perspectives.

Implications of Climate Change for Shipping: Opening up the Arctic Seas research focuses on taking a balanced perspective on the potential of Arctic shipping as an economically feasible alternative for the short- and long-term future.

Ecological Embeddedness and Indigenous Community: The Case of Arctic Shipping research focuses on Indigenous people’s ecological mindset, defined as a multi-dimensional concept, by proposing three dimensions: personal identification with the land, adherence to ecological beliefs, and ecologically knowledgeable. Examine the relationships between this ecological mindset with Indigenous community members’ attitudes towards the Arctic shipping route development.
