Abstract:

The department of Transport and Regional Economics (TPR) is committed to be an international centre of excellence for fundamental and applied academic training, research and service provision in transport economics, logistics and regional economics. Its mission is to enhance transport and logistics for our society and the business community. It contributes in developing activating, student-centred and competence-driven programme components and study programmes of the faculty Business and Economics and advanced master's programmes within the Centre for Maritime and Air Transport Management (C-MAT), inclusive master classes, taking future challenges into account. Its research results in theories, innovative and sustainable applications and instruments to enhance existing academic knowledge, transport policy and supply chain environments. Therefore, TPR conducts innovative and multi/inter- disciplinary research within an international context and organises educational programs from bachelor up to PhD level. TPR pursues results that are academically sound, economically viable and supporting sustainable development. It values a critical and an independent approach and an open communication. TPR's research activities unfold within a framework of programs stimulated by the university, public authorities at all policy levels, non-profit organisations as well as private or semi-private actors.

Project research plays a key role in gaining scientific knowledge. The department aims at a wide array of research projects, incorporating longer term fundamental research projects, as well as contracts with diverse promotors and limited assignments intended for immediate application. Business knowledge also involves to a large extent policy advice, consulting and individual research of the department members. This way, in the past years, a lot of research was performed for companies, and high-standing research was done into the evaluation of transport investments, mobility policy, tourism, the maritime and port sector, and spatial aspects and city policy.

The lines of research pursued by TPR are located on the interface of general and business economics. The rich set of tools that the fields of transport and spatial economics offer are apparent in the broad range of research procedures applied. These include strategic analyses, methods of economic research and assessment, information gathering and analysis, operational research, model-based analysis, forecasting and simulations.

The research activities unfold within the framework of programmes instigated by the university and the authorities (regional, federal and European) as well as specific assignments from the public and private sectors. The topics covered relate to:

the interaction between transport and economics;
freight transport;
the port and maritime sector;
the air transport business and markets;
urban logistics and distribution;
the assessment of infrastructure projects;
strategic analyses and policy recommendations (private companies, authorities);
interaction between transport and physical planning;
urban studies and regional economics.
