School of Transportation Science and Engineering, Harbin Institute of Technology (Chinese: 哈尔滨工业大学交通科学与工程学院) is one of nineteen schools of Harbin Institute of Technology, and the only school of transportation engineering within C9 League (an alliance of the top nine universities in China). The school was founded in 1995. With years of development, its quality of science research and student education have reached top-ranking level and it has been conferred as one of the most important training bases of civil engineering and transportation engineers by the nation.

History

School of Transportation Science and Engineering, Harbin Institute of Technology traces its origin back to the railway construction program of the

Undergraduate
.

In 1995, the School was founded with

Doctorate. In 2000, School of Transportation Science and Engineering was incorporated into Harbin Institute of Technology as Harbin University of Architecture was incorporated as the 2nd campus of HIT. In 2009, the Transportation Information and Control Engineering major was established.[1]
