| | | Learning outcomes |
- EC
| The holder of the degree is able to apply knowledge in an autonomous and self-managing manner. He/she is able to plan, guard, manage and evaluate his/her own learning processes and to take care of his/her own (quality) control. | | | - DC
| The student works in an autonomous and self-managing manner. | - EC
| The holder of the degree is able to consult and summarize international scientific specialist literature in the domain of transportation sciences autonomously. Based on this information, he/she can take a substantiated stand. | | | - DC
| Based on the supplied concepts, the student is able to apply this knowledge to describe the transport organisation in his/her own region | - EC
| The holder of the degree can function as a member of a (multidisciplinary) team and has a good assessment of his/her own role within the organisation and in a wider social and international context. | | | - DC
| The student obtains a better picture of the organisation of transport and mobility in a wider context. | - EC
| The holder of the degree considers society as a whole as an important stakeholder and reflects on the social relevance and consequences of recommendations and assignments in a critical manner. In addition to society, the master can also identify and set to work with other stakeholders (interested parties) and their specific needs. | | | - DC
| The student is able to identify the most important stakeholders within the context of his/her topic and to elucidate their relevance. | | | - DC
| The student can empathize with and take into account the points of view of various stakeholders when assessing various possible solutions. | - EC
| The holder of the degree is able to communicate and convince others (both in writing and orally) on his/her field of study (in the shape of scientific reports, presentations, case studies and the integrated project) with scientists of his/her own or similar fields of study and with wide social groups (e.g. residents, governments, shopkeepers). | | | - DC
| The student is able to communicate in writing on a researched case study and argue his personal point of view. | | | - DC
| The student is able to orally communicate on a researched case study and argue his personal point of view. | - EC
| The holder of the degree is able to identify relevant traffic safety and transportation problems in the field of transportation sciences. | | | - DC
| The student can describe a concrete problem within the domain of traffic safety or mobility management and convert this to concrete objectives. | - EC
| The holder of the degree offers realistic solutions for complex traffic safety or transportation problems by using relevant theories and/or models from the field of study of transportation sciences or related domains. | | | - DC
| The student offers a realistic solution for a certain problem, based on knowledge and insight, gained from his academic schooling. |

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.
