“International Joint Research Center of Rail Transit Control and Safety” was established by Beijing Jiaotong University, CRRC Academy, Traffic Control Technology Co., Ltd.; and University of Birmingham, Technische Universitat Braunschweig, Technical University of Madrid and IMA. The research field involves the four national-level major disciplines: “traffic and transportation planning and management”, “traffic information engineering and control”, “communication and information system” and “vehicle application project” as well as the “system science” which ranked first in the country.

“National Technological Innovation Demonstration Enterprises” aim to deeply implement the innovation-driven development strategy and strengthen the dominant position of enterprise through technological innovation. TCT always adheres to the principle of independent innovation, keeps up with the international development trends, takes CBTC with independent intellectual property as the core, provides urban rail transit with self-developed solutions such as the communication-based train control system (CBTC), full-automatic operation system (FAO), interconnectivity system (I-CBTC), urban rail cloud system and TIDS system, promotes Chinese urban rail transit signal system to realize automation technology and realizes the transformation from following, running to leading. The approval of “National Technological Innovation Demonstration Enterprises” represents a highly recognition to TCT’s performances and capacity that takes “Innovation” as the gene, “creating independently-innovative brands” as the mission and supplying safe, reliable and intelligent products.
