Welcome to TRUM's web pages, where we hope to provide you with information on research in such fields as transport, communication and environment. TRUM's studies into transport and travel focus mainly on smaller-size units such as individuals, households and companies.
Background
TRUM was founded in 1981 on a pattern existing at foreign universities, with the aim of promoting interdisciplinary research in the field of transport. Its researchers are employed by, and partly work within, one or other of the university departments involved. This ensures solid connections with ongoing basic research and also creates conditions for the recruitment of postgraduate students. Our studies concentrate on aspects of social science, and behavioural/cognitive science pertaining to passenger transport.
TRUM has contacts with individuals and groups engaged in research both in Sweden and abroad, most closely with researchers in the departments represented at TRUM.
