This micro-credential uses the models following the structures mandated by the National Transport Authority. This micro-credential provides a comprehensive overview of the structure of these models and as such would be valuable to those requiring knowledge on how these models are used in transport appraisals.
This micro-credential examines pathways to lowering emissions through promoting shifts to sustainable modes of transport and reducing emissions from existing modes of transport and is part of the only Level 9 course dedicated to transport engineering and modelling.
It covers the basis of the four-stage transport model used by the National Transport Authority in the evaluation of transport projects. Providing students with detailed knowledge of the concepts and processes of transportation modelling.
How will this Micro-credential be delivered?
This micro-credential is available as hybrid learning and can be done entirely online apart from the exam.
All lectures (3 hours per week for the 12 weeks) will be delivered in-person, live-streamed online and recorded.
On successful completion of this micro-credential, learners will be able to:
- Advanced knowledge of macro transport modelling and evaluation of transportation schemes.
- Design Public transport network and the interactions between land use planning and transport.
- Understanding the stages in transport analysis and design.
- Evaluate transport networks using the four-stage model.
- Discuss how transport networks are designed.
- Apply discrete choice models to transportation problems.
- Understand how activity-based transport models link to the traditional four-stage model.
- Identify the links between land use and transport planning.
- Design and plan public transport routes.
- Model the interactions between transport and emissions.
