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.

| Evaluation conditions (participation and/or pass) | ✔ |
|
| Conditions | Compulsory participation and submission
- The student must participate in compulsory designated organisational and teaching methods (guest lectures, excursions, work sessions, presentations).
- Timely submission of all required assignments (individual paper and presentation, JIGSAW) is mandatory to obtain a final mark.
Minimum partial results and pass criteria
- A minimum score (≥ 8/20) must be achieved on all components (written exam, individual paper, individual presentation, JIGSAW) in order to pass the course.
- Only students who have fulfilled all compulsory components can receive a final mark.
|
|
|
|
| Consequences | Late submission or absence
- Failure to submit compulsory assignments on time (individual paper and presentation, JIGSAW) and/or unauthorised absence from compulsory activities (guest lectures, excursions, work sessions, presentations) may result in a score of 0 for the part of the course.
- Absences with valid justification must be reported in time and supported with documentation. Where possible, a replacement task will be provided.
Insufficient partial results
- If the student obtains less than 8/20 on any component of the course, that lowest partial mark will become the final mark for that examination period.
Lack of active participation
- In cases of insufficient active contribution to group work (evidenced by interim monitoring), the individual student’s score may be adjusted.
|
|
|
|
| Additional information | If a student has a second exam opportunity, it is their responsibility to contact the lecturer in time to clarify which components must be retaken. |
|
Second examination period
| Evaluation second examination opportunity different from first examination opprt | |
|
| Explanation (English) | Retention of partial marks for the second examination period:
• Partial results with a passing score (≥ 10/20) from the first exam
opportunity will be carried over to the second examination period. This
applies to the written exam, the individual paper and presentation,
JIGSAW.
• In the case of a failed group assignment (JIGSAW), an alternative task
may be set for the second examination period, aligned with the intended
learning outcomes.
Second examination period:
• If a student has a second exam opportunity, it is their responsibility
to contact the lecturer in time to clarify which components must be
retaken.
• If the result was insufficient, the student may be asked to submit a
revised or individual version of the original task.
• If a student fails the overall course but passes separate components
(written exam, the individual paper and presentation, JIGSAW), the
partial result will be transferred to the second examination period. |
