Course Description

Course Profile

What do we teach?

You will learn the rules governing the development of modern transport. You will explore the secrets of engineering means of transport and transport infrastructure, traffic engineering and analysis of transport systems. You will be prepared to think creatively and use advanced knowledge in the field of organization and design of systems, as well as processes and technologies of road, rail and air transport as well as transport logistics. In addition, you will learn legal regulations and economics of transport activities.

Why is it worth it?

Transport is the flywheel of the modern economy. Despite the important role it plays, there are many challenges ahead. Digitization, decarbonisation and further expansion of the road network are the most important development trends in this area of the economy. Education in our field meets broad expectations: we will teach you how to make transport environmentally friendly, less emission-intensive, more sustainable and using new types of energy. Dynamic technological development, automation and the increasingly bold use of artificial intelligence mean that what was innovative yesterday is now widely used. Autonomous cars, computer-controlled cars, intelligent electric and hybrid vehicles, hydrogen-powered city buses are just some examples of a civilizational leap in transport. While studying, you will not only have access to the latest solutions, but you will be able to create or improve them.
