Entry level traffic analyst roles typically look for candidates with a degree in transportation planning, civil engineering, urban planning, or a related field, though internship experience or a portfolio of relevant coursework can substitute for a long work history.

A posting is new-grad friendly when it welcomes zero to two years of experience, accepts internship or co-op work in place of full-time history, or calls out a degree as the primary qualification.
