Learning outcomes:

The qualification holder will be able to:

(general competences)

  • analyse problems in transport studies, synthesise knowledge and information and envisage potential solutions, their implementation and consequences,
  • resolve problems through an interdisciplinary systemic approach and analytical thinking, using research methods and various sources, and transfer and apply acquired knowledge in practice,
  • integrate acquired in-depth theoretical and practical knowledge and apply it in existing and new technological solutions,
  • independently and autonomously create improvements to existing transport, traffic and transport logistics processes,
  • pursue lifelong learning,
  • adopt and address environmental and protective measures in the working environment,
  • work in a team, communicate and develop professional ethics in national and international environments, in particular in the various EU institutions,

(subject-specific competences)

  • demonstrate familiarity with and understanding of transport systems and organisations, transport technology, transport logistics and transport safety from both the theoretical and practical points of view,
  • demonstrate familiarity with and understanding of the factors of exploitation of transport infrastructure and means of transport, transport planning and management and characteristics of transport flows,
  • demonstrate understanding of the general structure and planning of selected technological processes of transport technologies, transport and the environment, geographic information systems, in accordance with legal, economic and other provisions or regulations,
  • demonstrate knowledge and understanding of factors of logistics processes and logistics networks and legal and economic support for these processes,
  • demonstrate understanding of the general structure and planning of logistics distribution centres, logistics marketing, reverse logistics and other processes in accordance with strategic management, information support and other types of support,
  • demonstrate knowledge and understanding of factors of numerical analysis in transport, transport regulation, technical reports on transport accidents and the theoretical basis of transport safety in all branches of transport,
  • demonstrate understanding of the general structure of biomechanics in transport, vehicle dynamics and ergonomics in transport and relevant knowledge of transport engineering, reliability and maintenance of intelligent transport systems,
  • develop and apply new methods in projects designed to address issues in transport technology, transport logistics and transport safety in all branches of transport,
  • demonstrate understanding of specialised and scholarly literature and write and publish specialised and scholarly articles.

Assesment and completion:

Students' knowledge is assessed by means of practical exercises and seminar papers, and also via products, projects, performances, services, etc. and by examinations. Examination performance is scored as follows: 10 (excellent); 9 (very good: above-average knowledge but with some mistakes); 8 (very good: solid results); 7 (good); 6 (adequate: knowledge satisfies minimum criteria); 5–1 (inadequate). In order to pass an examination, a candidate must achieve a grade between adequate (6) and excellent (10).

Progress:

In order to progress to the next year, full-time and part-time students must have completed the course units prescribed by the study programme (lectures, practical classes, written tests, seminars, etc.) and gained the prescribed number of credits from the study programme by passing examinations (45 first-year credits to enrol in the second year, or 30 first-year credits to enrol in the second year as a part-time student).
