Published nearly 300 academic papers, of which more than 90 were included in the three major indexes; Won five provincial and ministerial prizes, including the first prize 1, three second prizes and the third prize1; Obtained 2 invention patents and 6 utility model patents; Published 2 textbooks and 4 monographs; And realized the transformation of many scientific research achievements. The Department of Transportation Engineering has been closely combining with the development needs of the transportation industry in Guangdong Province, and paying attention to scientific and technological research and innovation according to the traffic conditions in Guangdong Province. The research results have been highly recognized by domestic counterparts and made positive contributions to traffic construction and management in South China.
In terms of scientific research, the Department of Transportation Engineering has established the discipline team of "Traffic Information Engineering and Control", including "Intelligent Transportation System" and "Traffic Planning", based on traffic engineering, traffic information engineering and control, traffic planning and management, control theory and control engineering, and high-level university construction projects such as "21"and "985".
In terms of discipline construction, the Department of Traffic Engineering has the qualifications and abilities to train undergraduate students in traffic engineering, master students in traffic information engineering and control, master students in traffic planning and management, master students in traffic engineering field, and doctor students in traffic information engineering and control, and has established three academic teams in traffic information engineering and control, including intelligent transportation system, traffic planning and management, and expressway information engineering and system optimization and simulation. It is the national "2 1 1 engineering" key construction discipline and the national "985" engineering discipline platform, and has built research institutions such as Intelligent Transportation System and Logistics Technology Research Institute and National Intelligent Transportation Technology Training Network Guangzhou Center.
Institute of Intelligent Transportation System and Logistics Technology;
The Institute of Intelligent Transportation System and Logistics Technology was established in 2000. Relying on traffic engineering, logistics engineering, traffic information engineering and control, traffic planning and management, control theory and control engineering, two research teams, namely intelligent transportation system and traffic planning and management, were established. It is one of the research units of China its system framework in the Tenth Five-Year Plan organized by the Ministry of Science and Technology. It is at the leading level in the field of intelligent transportation in China, and some research directions have reached the international advanced level.
National Intelligent Transportation Technology Training Network-Guangzhou Center
Guangzhou Center of National Intelligent Transportation Technology Training Network is the only intelligent transportation technology training center in South China, which is entrusted by the National Intelligent Transportation System Coordination Steering Group Office and the Highway Research Institute of the Ministry of Communications (National Intelligent Transportation System Engineering Technology Research Center) according to the national key scientific and technological project "Intelligent Transportation System Social Environment System Construction". Headquartered in the School of Communication, South China University of Technology, the center has a strong faculty and experimental conditions. According to the needs of training objects and contents, the center also invites leaders of relevant departments in the transportation industry and well-known experts and scholars at home and abroad to give lectures, and organizes internships in developed regions and advanced provinces and cities.
