Course objectives supported by learning outcomes
The course "Technology and Transport Management - Public Transport with the Support of Green Skills and Sustainability" aims to present the relationship between technological issues and the management of public transport with an emphasis on practical operation in large cities and urban agglomerations, with a focus on the support of green skills and sustainability. The course also focuses on the possibilities of using renewable energy sources in public transport operations, exploring the environmental aspects of public transport from different perspectives, including comparisons with other modes of transport. The course also covers topics related to innovations in public transport vehicle propulsion technologies and their impact on energy efficiency.
