Tongji University integrates the School of Transportation, the Institute of Railway and Urban Rail,

On the afternoon of September 1, the unveiling ceremony of the School of Transportation of Tongji University was held in front of the Tongda Hall of Jiading Campus.

What is Tongji, a transportation powerhouse? Tongji University integrated the former School of Traffic and Transportation Engineering, the Railway and Urban Rail Transit Research Institute, and the Maglev Transportation Engineering Technology Research Center to establish a new School of Transportation. This is another reform and exploration of Tongji to optimize the platform resources of transportation-related disciplines and expand and strengthen the traditional advantageous disciplines.
