hEART27

We are pleased to announce that the 15th Symposium of the European Association for Research in Transportation - hEART 2027 will take place in Kraków, Poland.
The symposium will be hosted by Rafał Kucharski at Jagiellonian University, Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science.
A PhD school and workshops will be organized around the main symposium, together with dedicated side events to facilitate networking and discussions with stakeholders from academia, industry, and the public sector.
We look forward to welcoming the international transportation research community to Kraków for several days of 
high-quality scientific exchange, lively discussions, and new collaborations.
hEART 2027 aims to promote excellence in transportation research in Europe, with a particular focus on PhD students and young researchers, while bringing together leading scientists in transportation, mobility, logistics, and operational 
research from academia, industry, and public authorities.
This follows the same core positioning used by the 2026 edition. 
 

The Symposium

  • Provides a forum to present cutting-edge research in transport systems, mobility, and logistics
  • Encourages interaction and collaboration through technical sessions, posters, workshops, and social events
  • Welcomes contributions from researchers across a broad range of methodological and applied perspectives in transportation science
Held in Kraków, one of Central Europe’s leading academic and cultural centres, and hosted at the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science of Jagiellonian University (established in 1364), the symposium will offer an excellent environment for scientific exchange, networking, and inspiring discussions.
