Prerequisite: BMGT230, ECON230, ECON321, ENCE302, or PLCY304; or permission of the instructors. Recommended: AREC326, ECON306 or ECON326.
Credit only granted for AREC466, ENCE489T, or ENCE689T.
The transportation system moves people and goods around the world, but transportation has downsides: harming local air quality, contributing to climate change, causing traffic accidents, and wasting people's time on congested roads. Mitigating these downsides will require new policies, new technologies, and new decisions by households and businesses. Focusing on the US transportation system, students will apply an integrated economics, policy, and engineering perspective to analyze transportation's most pressing challenges. Students are expected to have some background in one of the three disciplines--economics, engineering, or policy--but not all three. The beginning of the semester will include tutorials for students without much economics or engineering background.
