20802084 - TRANSPORT PLANNING

ALL THE ASPECTS OF TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS ENGINEERING ARE DEVELOPED WITH REFERENCE TO THE MOST INNOVATIVE MATHEMATICAL MODELS. THE GOAL IS TO OBTAIN THE MOST ADVANCED SKILLS FOR THE SIMULATION OF TRANSPORT SUPPLY AND DEMAND, AND THEIR INTERACTIONS. THE COURSE PROVIDES AN OVERALL FRAMEWORK OF TRANSPORT MODELS TO BE ADOPTED FOR THE DESIGN AND EVALUATION OF TRANSPORT SYSTEMS PLANNING.
