About TechMRT

The Texas Tech Center for Multidisciplinary Research in Transportation (TechMRT) was established in 1997 to serve as the focal point for communication between TTU researchers and transportation research needs. TTU researchers, faculty members, and students work together to promote cutting-edge developments in materials research, infrastructure resilience, and transportation technology.

Expertise and funded projects include topics such as Construction and Maintenance Resilience, Data Simulation and Automation, Environmental and Hydrology, Geotechnical Engineering and Pavement Systems, Mobility and Safety, and Structural Systems Engineering.

Tomorrow's Transportation Workforce: At TechMRT, students are integral to everything we do. Students work side-by-side in the lab and in the field, gaining real-world experience to address tomorrow's transportation challenges.
