| | | Learning outcomes |
- EC
| EC1: The holder of the degree applies knowledge in an independent and self-directed manner. He/she is able to critically plan, guard, manage and evaluate his/her own learning processes and to take care of his/her own (quality) control. | | | - DC
| DC3: The student has an advanced level of knowledge and insight, characteristic of scientific work in the field of transportation sciences. | - EC
| EC2: The holder of the degree has in-depth knowledge and understanding of the concepts, methods, and (research) techniques of transportation sciences. He/she is able to apply the concepts, methods and (research) techniques in the field of transportation sciences adequately and autonomously. | | | - DC
| DC1: The student can autonomously consult, assess and synthesise international scientific professional literature from the field of transportation sciences in terms of the knowledge required. | | | - DC
| DC2: The student can take a standpoint based on information from international scientific literature and substantiate this. | | | - DC
| DC3: The student can autonomously select and justify appropriate concepts, methods or techniques for scientific research based on a given context. | - EC
| EC4: The holder of the degree considers the society as a whole as an important stakeholder and reflects on the social relevance and consequences of recommendations/solutions and projects/assignments in a critical manner. In doing so, the holder of the degree strives, among other things, to have a sustainable impact on the region. | | | - DC
| DC2: The student is able to empathise with and take into account the views of different stakeholders when assessing and developing different solution options. | - EC
| EC5: The holder of the degree is made aware of and has insight into the regional and international policy framework, similarities and differences with respect to transport policies. The holder of the degree is encouraged to get in touch with various (inter)national stakeholders active in the field of transportation. | | | - DC
| DC2: The student investigates which parts of an (inter)national policy framework are applicable to various regions and determines the critical success factors and the system in which it should function. | - EC
| EC6: The holder of the degree is able to communicate and convince others on his/her field of study, both in writing and orally, addressing scientists of his/her own or similar fields of study and wide social groups. | | | - DC
| DC1: The student is able to communicate on the process, results as well as his/her views in writing in a logically structured and clearly understandable way and to exchange views on these with others. |

Effectively addressing the worldwide problem of traffic safety relies on the application of evidence-based knowledge of real-world events. Countermeasures should be informed by the human, vehicle and environmental factors which contribute to real crashes and real injury. This course considers the theoretical and practical aspects of techniques applied to the in-depth analysis of real crashes, and how they can help to explain the pre, during and post-crash events which result in human injury. More specifically the following topics are discussed: Introduction to crash analysis, precautionary measures for working on location, vehicle inspection, analysing the crash site, collecting information from witnesses, applying basic mathematics and physics concepts to in-depth crash analysis, analysis of injury data, development of vehicle safety technology and safety regulations, development of safe infrastructure design, road safety in low to middle income countries (LMIC’s) and the contribution of human factors to crash events.
This course is taught during an intensive course of one week consisting of lectures and practical sessions. Outside the classroom, students are expected to work independently on pre-prepared study materials and assignments.
