The Transportation Engineering Experimental Teaching Center was established in June 2019 as a comprehensive experimental teaching center. It comprises three specialized units: the Traffic Equipment Sub-laboratory, the Logistics Engineering Sub-laboratory, and the Transportation Virtual Simulation Laboratory.

The center currently employs5technical staff members, including2senior title holders and4holders of doctoral degrees. The total value of teaching and experimental equipment reaches 12 million Chinese Yuan (CNY), which includes 15 large-scale instruments valued over 200,000 CNY each and more than 130 other major pieces of equipment.

The center possesses one National Virtual Simulation Experimental Teaching Project, one Hunan Provincial Virtual Simulation Experimental Teaching Project, and one Central South University Virtual Simulation Experimental Teaching Project.

Serving as the public experimental teaching platform for the school, the center undertakes experimental teaching tasks for all majors within the school. Since its establishment, the center has actively promoted informatization, network infrastructure development, and the opening and sharing of experimental teaching resources. It provides strong support for scientific research and innovation practices, including undergraduate thesis projects, disciplinary competitions, and innovation and entrepreneurship training programs, by offering venues, equipment, and instructional guidance.
