Transportation Systems
Technical University of Munich
Program Overview
The transportation system is a very important part of any modern economy and a core element of daily human life. Our society and economy are faced with an increasing demand for mobility as well as with the concept of sustainability. These new challenges also require new planning and management strategies in the area of transportation. Experts are needed to design roads, traffic control systems and public transport networks. These professionals must be familiar with the concepts of transportation demand management, integrated land use and intermodal traffic management. Tasks like providing ideal transportation conditions for individuals and the economy alike, while simultaneously enhancing the living conditions of urban areas, can only be met by considering the transportation system as part of a more complex system. This system encompasses networks, means of transportation, infrastructure and traffic control systems. The interactions between transport, economy, land use and the natural environment must form an integral part of transportation planning strategies. The unique Master’s programme in Transportation Systems at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) provides students with the necessary knowledge and skills to deal with these challenges. In addition to their core curriculum, students can specialise in one of the following fields of study: Transportation Infrastructure Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) Transportation Demand Management
