- The student should inquire in the context of the specific Master's thesis topic which supporting knowledge and skills are needed from various courses of the Master's program to start the Master's thesis.
- The student should be familiar with the basic principles of a plan of approach (problem definition, objective, research questions, choice of research method and literature study) and can draw this up according to the instructions provided.
- The student is familiar with looking up scientific literature (i.e. articles, books, reports) via the website of the library of Hasselt University and can structure and summarize the scientific literature with correct source references (APA guidelines);
- The student becomes familiar with the various research methods within the mobility sciences and can choose the relevant research method(s) based on a certain context, justify this choice, and then apply the research method(s) correctly;
- The student can make a report that has a clear structure and discuss the approach and results in a clear and scientific manner;
- The student can make a presentation that has a clear structure and describes the most important parts of scientific research in a clear manner;
- The student can provide reliable sustainable solutions based on the interpretation of the research results.

|
The master of Transportation Sciences ends with a master thesis. Students elaborate further on the topic for which they set up the plan of approach during the course Research Portfolio. The topic is dependent on the specialization of the student, i.e. traffic safety or mobility related.
