Abstract

The Center for Transportation Studies at the University of Denver was created in 1991. It builds on a foundation of educational activities offered since the inauguration of its Transportation Law Institute in 1967 and the creation of the Transportation Law Program in 1976. The educational emphasis began in motor carrier law and regulation, and has since expanded to embrace bus, rail and air transport. The new Center for Transportation Studies will encompass all transportation modes. The Center intends to develop graduate and undergraduate programs in transportation. This essay addresses the need for a multidisciplinary center for studies in domestic and international transportation, its goals and objectives, and the existing resources at the University of Denver.
