AITE Scholarships

AITE application is not available at the moment.

The purpose of UTRC’s Advanced Institute for Transportation Education (AITE) scholarship program is to increase the knowledge and capabilities of transportation professionals by supporting the pursuit of master’s degrees in transportation-related fields.   The program supports both full-time master’s students and professionals working at participating agencies who are looking to increase their expertise through pursuit of a master’s degree.

All Universities that are members of the UTRC Consortium are eligible to participate in the AITE Scholarship Program.  Two types of scholarships are provided through the AITE Program: 

• Agency Employee Scholarships
• Full-time Student Scholarships 

The AITE Scholarship Program is a federally-funded matching program.  All UTRC funds allocated through the AITE program must be matched with non-federal funds either from participating agencies for Agency Employee recipients or from participating universities for Full-Time Student recipients.
