主に外国人教員が,その専門とする土木工学の最新の話題について英語により講義を行う。
The advanced topic is given by a visiting professor in English.
The aim of the course is to introduce concepts and techniques used in the analysis of transport and traffic movement. Further, to provide the student fundamental knowledge on transport planning theory and processes, as well as knowledge and understanding of the basic principles and practice of urban traffic and transport management.
