University of Denver announces transportation institute's name change

The Intermodal Transportation Institute has changed its name to the Transportation Institute at the University of Denver (DTI) to reflect its approach to comprehensive education for all transportation modes, university officials announced this week.

Founded in fall 1996 at the university, the institute provides executive transportation education for professionals and senior leaders in global transportation, logistics and supply chain management. The university approved the institute's name change last month.

"The Transportation Institute inspires transportation solutions for talented executives through a blend of education and networking that develops understanding and heightens the capabilities of leaders involved in the transportation industry," said William DeWitt III, the institute's executive director.

More than 200 participants have graduated from the executive master’s degree program in the 12 annual cohorts to date.
