General information for the degree programme
The aim of the programme is to train students to become system engineers of transportation. It teaches the basics of engineering and the respective scientific methods in order to understand the various disciplines of transportation science and the relationships between as well as subject related fields. Students are able to adapt and apply scientific and engineering knowledge on an interdisciplinary level in order to solve multiple tasks in the field of transportation.
The course is divided into two sections, a basic level and an advanced level. The basic level consists of four semesters whereas the advanced level comprises six semesters. The basic level covers a wide range of subjects:
a. mathematical and natural science subjects (such as mathematics, physics, computer science)
b. engineering subjects (such as the principles of mechanical, electrical and transport engineering, construction of traffic facilities, vehicles and infrastructure, traffic planning and technology, and traffic and the environment)
c. non-technical subjects (such as economics, general studies and foreign languages).
The aim of the advanced level in traffic system and transport engineering is to train students in the independent application and development of scientific and practical knowledge and methods used for traffic system design, infrastructural and operational planning, technological evaluation and business management of landborne and/or airborne traffic systems including transport logistics.
The following specialisations are available for the advanced study period:
A. Railway Transportation Systems
B. Planning and Operating of Electrical Transportation Systems
C. Transportation Planning and Traffic Engineering;
D. Transportation Systems engineering and Logistics
E. Traffic telematics
Students choose one of these options in accordance with their particular interests and abilities.
The programme is concluded with a research-oriented diploma thesis.
