In connection with the introduction of new directions in the education system in Uzbekistan, at the initiative of Academician N. Rashidov, the department was specialized in training bachelors, and its name was changed to "Operation of Vehicles". During 2003-2008, the department was headed by Professor of the Jizzakh Polytechnic Institute, Ph.D. Khamrakulov Omonboy Khamrakulovich. In a short time, the scientific and pedagogical structure of the department was studied and work was carried out to increase the capacity of the department. The scientific and technical laboratory "Technical Operation of Vehicles" began to operate on the basis of the department. In 2008-2013, the department was headed by Ph.D. Associate Professor Usmonov Salahdin Aliqulovich. Assoc. Prof. Under the leadership of S.Usmanov, the projects of international and scientific grants CD_JEP-26123-2005 “Creation of an engineering master's program in CAD/CAE/CAM systems” (total amount 430810 euros) and OT-F-6-004 “Substantiation of the laws of dispersion of exhaust gases emitted from motor vehicles into the environment and their impact on the atmospheric air balance” (total amount 21000000 soums) were implemented. From 2013 to 2019, the department was headed by Ph.D. Associate Professor Adilov Okbuta Karimovich. The department was specialized in training bachelors and masters and its name was changed to “Surface Transport Systems”. From 2019 to 2023, the department was headed by Ph.D. Associate Professor Askarov Ikhtiyor Bakhtiyorovich. In 2020, it was renamed "Transport Engineering". In 2019-2023, the department published 10 textbooks and 15 training manuals. Since 2023, the department has been headed by Ernazarov Aziz Aliboyevich, PhD. (PhD). During this period, Karimova Kamola Gulomovna and Ernazarov Aziz Aliboyevich defended their doctoral dissertations (PhD).
