Transport Innovation and Valorisation is a 6-credit course designed to teach students how to develop innovative transport solutions that matter to people. The course adopts the systematic approach of the Stanford BioDesign innovation process, which involves identifying unmet needs or challenges in transportation, developing potential solutions, and implementing and commercializing the most promising ideas. Students will gain exposure to this innovation process as a framework for addressing key challenges in transportation and improving efficiency, safety, sustainability, and accessibility. The course offers lectures on related topics and contains a group assignment where students will innovate in group on a (predefined) topic using the innovation process.

| Written evaluaton during teaching periode | 30 % |
|
| Transfer of partial marks within the academic year | ✔ |
|
| Conditions transfer of partial marks within the academic year | In case of min 10/20 on the paper (evaluation during teaching period)
this score will be retained in the academic year. |
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
| Oral evaluation during teaching period | 70 % |
|
| Transfer of partial marks within the academic year | ✔ |
|
| Conditions transfer of partial marks within the academic year | In case of min 10/20 on the presentation part (evaluation during
teaching period) this score will be retained in the academic year. |

|
|
|
|
| Evaluation conditions (participation and/or pass) | ✔ |
|
| Conditions | Timely submission of the final paper (evaluation during teaching period) is mandatory. Attendance and active participation in the work sessions (=group work) is mandatory. The student should actively contribute to the group work. |
|
|
|
| Consequences | Students who do not submit the paper, or submit it after the deadline, will receive a final score of N for this course. Unlawful absence of a student may lead to an individually adjusted score. Students' performance in group will be evaluated through peer assessment (e.g. BuddyCheck) and may lead to an individually adjusted score. |
|
|
|
| Additional information | Students who failed the course in the first term are given a replacement individual assignment for the second examination period, depending on which part(s) of the course they failed. They need to ask the members of the teaching team which part(s) they need to redo during resit (oral presentation, case study and/or paper...). The 2nd exam chance is an individual assignment, not a group assignment. |

Second examination period
| Evaluation second examination opportunity different from first examination opprt | |
|
| Explanation (English) | Students who failed the course in the first term are given a replacement
individual assignment for the second examination period, depending on
which part(s) of the course they failed. They need to ask the members of
the teaching team which part(s) they need to redo during resit (oral
presentation, case study and/or paper...). The 2nd exam chance is an
individual assignment, not a group assignment. |
