NC State University - Institute for Transportation Research & Education (ITRE)

Since 1978, the Institute for Transportation Research and Education (ITRE) has been conducting transportation research, training, and technical support in North Carolina and throughout the United States. ITRE works across multiple modes of transportation to provide capacity and expertise that assist municipal, state, federal, and international clients with solving critical transportation issues.

Today, ITRE's expertise covers numerous travel modes and services that reflect the ever-evolving nature of the transportation field. Our staff and partners operate with a “people-centered” lens that recognizes the holistic nature of transportation and the many ways people are impacted by transportation-related decisions. We work across disciplines with faculty and private industry to provide valuable deliverables to our sponsors and the community. Through our work, we are proud to mentor approximately 100 undergraduate and graduate students annually, providing them with rewarding professional experiences.
