The Intermodal Transportation Institute (ITI) at the University of Denver has named two new transportation leaders to its Executive Master’s Program faculty for the 2006-2007 academic year,
adding to its already impressive graduate program faculty team.
Roger Nober, executive vice president, Law and Secretary, with Burlington Northern Santa Fe Corp. (BNSF), teaches Transportation Law and Regulation, and Francis P. Mulvey, commissioner of the Surface Transportation Board, teaches Transportation Economics. Both new faculty members bring vast transportation and public policy experience to this unique graduate program offered by the University of Denver’s ITI.
Nober joined BNSF on January 1 as its chief legal officer and corporate secretary, and he has more than a dozen years of experience in legislative, regulatory, and policy-making experience in the transportation sector, as well as an extensive background in all modes of transportation.
Mulvey is currently commissioner on the Surface Transportation Board (STB), where he served as its vice chairman in 2006. Prior to joining the STB, he was staff director for the Railroad Subcommittee and Staff Director for Pipelines and Hazardous Materials for the U.S. House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. Previously, he was deputy assistant inspector general at the U.S. Department of Transportation, where he was responsible for IG audits of federal rail, transit, pipeline, and hazmat programs.
The Intermodal Transportation Institute at the University of Denver offers an Executive Master’s Program that awards a Master of Science in Intermodal Transportation Management from the University of Denver. This graduate degree program prepares transportation industry managers for the increasingly complex, global business environment where a knowledge of finance, quantitative processes, supply chain, law, and public policy issues as well as freight, passenger, and intermodal transportation operational strategies are critical management tools for success.
