The mission of the MS - Transportation Management program is to provide opportunities for individuals from both technical and non-technical disciplines to obtain advanced specialization in surface transportation management. The program draws on the latest in transportation policy, administration and understanding of the diverse and sometimes conflicting needs of modern transportation management, for better serving their employers, community and society. The degree is available through distance-learning facilities and electronic technologies, providing an opportunity for students to obtain the degree at remote locations (state fee schedule does not apply).

Students must maintain a grade point average of 3.0 or better on all graduate level course work. Students who receive grades of "C-", "D", "F", or "U" in any graduate course must repeat the course with a grade of "C" or better. In addition, any student whose GPA falls below 3.0 or receives two or more unsatisfactory grades ("C-", "D", "F", or "U") in graduate status, regardless of units completed, may be disqualified from the MSTM program. Disqualification requires students to complete a program of study for reinstatement with the graduate advisor and reapply for admission. It is the policy of the Donald and Sally Lucas Graduate School of Business not to readmit disqualified graduate students after a second disqualification.
The University requires that all graduate students demonstrate competency in written English as a condition for advancement to candidacy.
