<center><FontFamily><param>Palatino</param> SCHOOL OF CIVIL ENGINEERING - TRANSPORTATION POSITIONS</center>
<flushboth><FontFamily><param>Times New Roman</param>The QUT School of Civil Engineering is one of Australia’s leading
transportation research and teaching centres with a strong international
reputation. The School, headed by Professor Rod Troutbeck, has strong
research collaborative links with leading transportation institutions in the
US, Europe and Asia. It has a track record of excellence in the areas of
road user behaviour, road safety, traffic flow efficiency, transport
evaluation, as well as railway engineering, operations and planning.
Significant industry and competitive grants have recently been obtained in
those areas. </flushboth>
<flushboth>Evidence of its strong industry links is the continuing significant support
from the Queensland Departments of Main Roads and Transport, in the
form of an on-going Memoradum of Understanding (MoU). Dr Luis
Ferreira has recently been appointed as Professor in Transport Efficiency
as part of that MoU to work mainly on road based urban network
performance. The increased industry funding will enable the School to
enhance its transportation research and training through the two
appointments described below.</flushboth>
