摘要: The Transportation Research Institute of the University of Michigan (UMTRI) is committed to interdisciplinary transportation-related research that will ultimately increase driving safety and further transportation-systems knowledge. Founded in 1965, UMTRI is currently operating a $17-million per-year research program, with funds received from federal and state government agencies, motor vehicle manufacturers and suppliers, and other organizations. Under the direction of Peter Sweatman, the current staff of approximately 130 includes full-time research, technical and administrative personnel, teaching faculty affiliated with the Universitys academic departments, graduate students, and other support staff. The multidisciplinary approach taken by UMTRI is reflected in the great variety of disciplines represented within the Institute, and by its involvement with other units of the University. More than 1,000 short- and long-term research projects have been carried out in broad areas involving accident data collection and traffic safety analysis, bioengineering, human factors, mechanical engineering, psychology, economics, and public policy. In addition, numerous multidisciplinary research programs are currently being conducted with other units of the University involving specialized areas of engineering, business, medicine, and public health.
