Industry Placement Program
Work with our students on real-life projects.
As a leading international centre of thought leadership in the areas of transport, logistics and supply chain management, we have been involved in many successful collaborative relationships spanning the private and public sectors. Some of these include:
When it came to upgrading the skills of key traffic operators and planners at the Roads and Traffic Authority of NSW, seeking input from the Institute of Transport and Logistics Studies was an obvious choice. The long term partnership has resulted in a series of specialised study programs that have helped improve staff skill levels and assisted the organisation in addressing its many challenges.
Partnering with Griffith University, Gold Coast City Council, Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads, Transport for NSW, Queensland Airports Limited, and the University of Queensland.
Partnering with the University of UNSW, Queensland University of Technology, ARRB Group Ltd, Transport for NSW, Robert Bosch (Australia) Proprietary Limited, Road Safety Commission, GoGet Carshare, VicRoads, Transport Accident Commission, and Liberty Mutual Research Institute for Safety (USA).
In 2016, the University of Sydney became the first academic institution to receive a full GS1 membership.
In partnership with the Bus and Coach Association of NSW, we have developed a program designed to meet the requirements for accreditation for bus and coach companies in NSW under the Passenger Transport Act.
