MSc INTELLIGENT TRANSPORT PLANNING AND ENGINEERING

The course consists of a number of self-contained, taught modules, organised around the various areas of civil engineering. The range of subjects covered includes Mental Wealth: Professional Life, Intelligent Transport Systems, Soil Structure Engineering, and Highway and Railway Engineering.
The programme will enable learners to gain a depth of advanced knowledge, new insights, critical awareness and comprehensive understanding of the most up to date practices and theories in transport planning and engineering. Furthermore, the programme will develop learners’ techniques for analysing and solving complex problems including those that may arise in various case studies
and/ or real-life traffic, highway, locomotive, maritime and aerospace engineering projects.
The programme is designed to provide learners with a stimulating learning environment for understanding the role of the engineer as an important professional in society by enhancing their skillset to deal with complex and multidisciplinary issues in transport planning, smart mobility and related engineering, both systematically and creatively. The programme will advance learners' industry readiness through engagement with industry experts and real work experience (for MSc Intelligent Transport Planning route), within the core elements of learning and assessment.

Mental Wealth/Professional Life skills are embedded in the programme to ensure that graduates are well prepared for existing industries as well as being ready for the Industrial Revolution 4.0 world of tomorrow. The programme is aimed at both the home and overseas market and, in particular, students working in the highways, railway, aviation and the wider transportation infrastructure and systems sector or students who would wish to work in these sectors. There are 32 London boroughs, the nearby District and County Councils and Transport for London and Consulting Engineers who all have highway and transportation responsibilities. In addition, there are Consulting Engineers who have sections dealing with Highway Design and Transportation so we are not short of market nearby. There is an acknowledged shortage of skilled civil engineers with the right qualifications and experience. We have designed this course to take advantage of this demand and give you a competitive edge when it comes to your career.

Minimum 2:2 BEng Honours or 2:1 BSc Honours in Engineering.
We would normally expect you to have Grade C in GCSE English and Maths.
