Institute of Transport Engineering and Сontrol Systems (ITTSU)

Historical Background

The history of the Institute of Transport Engineering and Control Systems traces back to the incorporation of Higher technical courses of the People’s Commissariat of transport into MIIT in 1924. In its current status the Institute of Transport Engineering and Control Systems was established on January 1, 2011 and became the largest institute within the University. The Institute trains specialists in the field of rolling stock, track maintenance vehicles, railway safety and operation management, railway automation and signalling, transport telecommunications, electric transport, rail transport electric power supply, technical systems control and informatics, computer security, metrology and metrological support. The Institute’s students undergo curricular practical training, on-site and pre-diploma training at the leading transport enterprises in Moscow, Moscow region, other Russian cities and abroad.
