What is iTRUE?

iTRUE  offers the chance to undergraduates to work on ongoing cutting edge research projects and interact with the KTH researchers involved. iTRUE participants are involved in each phase of a standard research activity: developing research plans, writing proposals, conducting research, collecting and analyzing data, and presenting research results in oral and written form.

iTRUE projects take place during the academic year and research can be done in any academic department or interdisciplinary laboratory or center carrying out transport research. iTRUE students receive a stipend for their participation.  The funding for the stipends, at least at the early phases of the program, are provided by TRENoP and the Transport Platform.

The main elements of the program are:

  • Researchers submit short project descriptions that the interested undergraduate students can apply for. 

  • Students can apply for different projects and pursue the topic during one semester (or longer). 

  • An iTRUE day will be organized annually,  where students will present their research. The workshop will be open to the entire transport community and announced broadly to KTH and various companies and organizations.
