University of California Transportation Center

Faculty Research

The University of California Transportation Center funds faculty research on surface transportation topics relevant to the Center’s theme, Transportation Systems Analysis and Policy. Any faculty member in the University of California system may apply for a research grant, except UC Davis faculty, who now have their own center. Please refer to the prospectus for 2006-2011 available here, for further information on UCTC activities and research programs.

Awards are made on a competitive, peer-reviewed basis. Successful applicants receive one-year grants, with funding provided in the fall term. Longer-term research can be funded by applying for follow-on grants; however, each annual grant must produce a useful product.

The Request for Proposals (RFP) provides information on proposal content and grant requirements. The RFP is available in Word and PDF formats. IMPORTANT NOTE: Faculty must download the full budget spreadsheet here, and the summary budget spreadsheet here. Budgets must be submitted using this format.

Faculty Proposals MUST BE EMAILED to proposals@uctc.net by the end of day on February 4, 2008.

If you have any problems with downloading the RFP or the budget spreadsheet, email edeakin@berkeley.edu

Please note: Faculty members seeking funding for dissertation students also should refer to the Dissertation Grants link off the main UCTC home page. We strongly encourage students to submit a proposal for a dissertation grant in their final year.
