This study deals with the movement of transportation within the University of Tikrit using the techniques of geographic information systems (GIS) and the access to this study to highlight the importance of the subject by showing the areas of traffic congestion experienced by the internal transport network at the University of Tikrit determining these areas accurately and knowing the causes of these traffic jams and trying to find treatments and technical and administrative solutions for them in order to achieve the objectives of the study, which is one of the topics of direct concern to a large number of people and at specific times. The study also reached many conclusions that show that the University of Tikrit is in its place.
