Class Description:
This course aims to provide an environment for students to learn essential facts and develop models and frameworks to understand the development of transportation policy, the making of transportation plans, and the deployment of transportation technologies. The course uses a mixture of traditional lectures and interactive learning through case studies and role playing. Both the lectures and the cases allow the students to develop an inductive understanding of transportation. The course will be successful if at the end, the student has developed a worldview on transportation (not necessarily the same as mine), and has an appreciation for merits and demerits of various points of view on transportation issues. The course seeks an integrative approach for transportation, and though the stories in lecture will primarily be told mode by mode, there are a number of opportunities to see the relationships between modes, in their structure in function, and in the learning as one mode adopts successful (and unsuccessful) attributes of others.

Class Description:

This course aims to provide the students with an introduction to the nature and history of transportation problems, policy issues and transportation deployment. The goal is to help students understand transportation problems and how they might be solved. The class is organized as lectures and seminars, and active participation is emphasized. Lectures will cover theoretical concepts and information. Students will be asked to participate in class discussions, debates, and other in-class activities. After this course, students will develop a worldview on transportation (not necessarily the same as the instructors), and have an appreciation for the merits and demerits of various points of view on transportation issues.

In this course, students will learn

  • The fundamentals of how people travel and the theories developed to explain travel behavior.

  • The linkages between transportation and other aspects of the urban and regional fabric.

  • The basic transportation models and the approaches to measure accessibility.

  • The principles of both democratic governance and public management to transportation policy questions.

  • The history of public transportation and its role in contemporary metropolitan areas

  • Models for future urban mobility.

  • The nature of selected specific transportation problems, including energy and environmental impacts, and potential solutions.

  • Develop and test original hypotheses with original data about transportation systems.
