Reference excerpt

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 Sino-Russian Industrial School, which was the precursor of Harbin Institute of Technology. In 1958, highway and urban road major was established by Professor N.S. Cai. In 1979, the school received qualification of enrolling graduates in majors of road and bridge. In 1986, the transportation engineering major was established and began to enroll graduate students. Seven years later, School of Transportation Science and Engineering began to enroll Undergraduate. In 1995, the School was founded with HIT's merge with Harbin University of Architecture. In 1998, the majors of road and bridge were both conferred with the qualification to enroll 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.

Departments Ever since 1958, the school has established five departments and one engineering center, namely Dept. of Road and Railway Engineering, Dept. of Bridge & Tunnel Engineering, Dept. of Transportation Engineering, Dept. of Road Materials Engineering, Dept. of Traffic Information & Control Engineering and the Measurement Center. It also owns a state key lab on urban road and traffic field and a provincial key lab on ITS (Intelligent Traffic System). Road and railway engineering has been assigned as key discipline by both Heilongjiang Province and the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development. Transportation planning, Engineering management and Bridge and tunnel engineering are listed as key discipline of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development.

Achievements Since its foundation, the school has promoted many advanced researches in the technology of Highway engineering, Highway construction and observing road & bridge, mechanical analysis and simulation, transportation issues and their effects and solutions, materials for pavement and bridges, and applications of intelligent transportation system.

Communication The School of Transportation Science and Engineering has various inter-school and international communications, having student exchange programs with Imperial College London, University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign and Moscow Automobile and Road Construction State Technical University (MADI). The school also has about 20 part-time Adjunct professor. It has held two high-level international conferences and participated in 66 high-level international conferences.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with School of Transportation Science and Engineering, HIT

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what School of Transportation Science and Engineering, HIT claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In engineering, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to School of Transportation Science and Engineering, HIT before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about School of Transportation Science and Engineering, HIT ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of School of Transportation Science and Engineering, HIT

In research: School of Transportation Science and Engineering, HIT appears in engineering research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses School of Transportation Science and Engineering, HIT in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: School of Transportation Science and Engineering, HIT is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Harbin Institute of Technology, Transportation engineering, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for School of Transportation Science and Engineering, HIT outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
