The course “Transport II. Transport Planning and Sustainable Mobility” aims at the introduction of under-graduate students to two distinct but related fields of transport engineering: A) Transport planning and modelling, and B) Sustainable urban mobility principles.

The overall objective of the course is to equip students with the basic knowledge and skills needed to support the assessment, development and implementation of integrated approaches to transport, urban and spatial planning.
