| DC1: The student shows initiative on an individual basis, creates opportunities by anticipating and adopts a flexible attitude. | | | - DC
| DC5: The student works in an autonomous and self-managing way, engaging in self-reflection and striving for continuous improvement. | - 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
| DC4: The student autonomously applies the selected concepts, methods or techniques for scientific research and interprets them adequately. | - EC
| EC3: The holder of the degree is able to autonomously carry out research in transportation sciences and offers realistic and sustainable solutions to complex transportation problems by using relevant theories and/or models from the field of study of transportation sciences or related domains. | | | - DC
| DC1: The student can identify relevant transportation problems in the field of transportation sciences. | | | - DC
| DC2: The student offers a realistic sustainable solution to a given problem based on acquired knowledge and insights from his/her academic training. | - 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

In this course the (spatial) organization of transport and mobility is treated from different angles. Among other things, the relationship between mobility and the spatial structure (local, regional and global transport flows), the different modes of transport and intermodal use between them, urban transport (with opportunities and challenges), the link with economics/society (economic development, transport costs), and challenges in the area of transport (in terms of sustainability, social equality and management) will be examined in more detail. It also discusses mobility trends in developing countries and informal transport.
The majority of your learning will be done through self-study, based on the course material that is made available online. You will have access to a range of useful online learning materials such as online lectures, reading materials, as well as access to thousands of e-books, online journals and other resources via our online university library. Approximately mid-semester, an online interactive Question and Answer session will be organised, where students can meet the course lecturer and fellow students online and have the opportunity to go deeper into the course material.
All evaluations will be done online, whether by submission of assignments or by taking written or oral exams online, or a combination of assignments and exams. Written exams will be done with online proctoring (exam supervision) to retain the integrity of a supervised exam, while providing the flexibility of an online platform. For the online exams, distance learning students should ensure to have a laptop/pc with a working webcam and microphone, a charged mobile device (phone/tablet) and a stable internet connection (minimum upload speed of 1.5 MB/second), as well as a quiet, secluded room to take the exam in.
