Content and learning outcomes

Course contents

The course is carried out as an individual independent project. A problem of current interest in transport and location analysis is formulated and analysed. The project typically starts with a minor literature survey.

A project plan is then formulated, which can include the following steps: choice of method, collection of empirical data, performing of interviews, problem analysis, proposal of solution and conclusions. A report of good quality is written that describes the method applied and in which the results are analysed and discussed.

Intended learning outcomes

The aim is to train the ability to carry out a project in transport and location analysis. This involves formulating a problem of current interest, collecting relevant information, critically analysing the problem and discussing possible solutions. Training the ability to write a report is an important aim.
