This Pan-American Advanced Studies Institutes (PASI) award, jointly supported by the NSF and the Department of Energy (DOE), will take place in Cartagena and Bogotá, Colombia. Organized by Dr. Jose Holguin-Veras, Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, the Pan-American Advanced Institute on Sustainable Urban Freight Systems aims to promote enhanced cooperation among transportation researchers in the Americas around the subject of sustainable urban freight systems (SUFS). The proposed PASI intends to develop a new generation of researchers and practitioners with a holistic view of urban freight system issues and their solutions that, ultimately, will have an impact on research, education and practice to foster SUFS. The PASI will bring together instructors who are international experts in major disciplinary groups including engineering, decision sciences, management, and economics. The multidisciplinary nature of this team, as well as the opportunity to engage in international collaborations, will ensure cross fertilization among the participating disciplines and, ultimately, will pave the ways for new paradigms of transportation sustainable systems.This PASI will introduce students to many important techniques in the above subjects. In addition to the benefits from developing long term synergistic relationships among faculty members, post docs, and senior PhD students, the PASI is intended to help achieve the support the education and advancement of underrepresented students. It will also provide up-to-date information on the deliberations of the PASI to a wider audience through a web page to disseminate results and reports of the meeting.

泛美高级研究院(PASI)奖由美国国家科学基金会和能源部共同支持，将在哥伦比亚的卡塔赫纳和波哥大举行。泛美可持续城市货运系统高级研究所由伦斯勒理工学院土木和环境工程教授Jose Holguin-Veras博士组织，旨在促进美洲交通研究人员围绕可持续城市货运系统(SUFS)这一主题加强合作。拟议的PASI旨在培养新一代研究人员和实践者，他们对城市货运系统问题及其解决方案具有全面的看法，最终将对促进超大规模货运系统的研究、教育和实践产生影响。PASI将汇集主要学科组的国际专家教师，包括工程、决策科学、管理和经济学。这个团队的多学科性质，以及参与国际合作的机会，将确保参与学科之间的交叉培养，并最终为交通可持续系统的新范式铺平道路。本次PASI将向学生介绍上述学科的许多重要技术。除了在教师、博士后和博士后学生之间发展长期的协同关系所带来的好处外，PASI还旨在帮助实现对代表不足的学生的教育和进步的支持。它还将通过传播会议成果和报告的网页，向更广泛的受众提供有关会议审议情况的最新信息。
