Course Details
• Introduction to Sustainable Transportation: An overview of the importance and benefits of sustainable transportation, including the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, energy efficiency, and air quality improvements. This unit will also cover the principles of connected systems and how they contribute to sustainable transportation. • Electric Vehicles and Charging Infrastructure: This unit will focus on the role of electric vehicles (EVs) in sustainable transportation, including the different types of EVs and their advantages and disadvantages. It will also cover charging infrastructure, including Level 1, Level 2, and DC Fast Charging. • Autonomous Vehicles and Connected Systems: This unit will explore the impact of autonomous vehicles on sustainable transportation and how connected systems can enhance their efficiency, safety, and accessibility. It will also cover the challenges and opportunities associated with autonomous vehicles. • Public Transportation and Active Transportation: This unit will discuss the role of public transportation and active transportation (e.g., walking, cycling) in sustainable transportation. It will cover the benefits and challenges of these modes of transport and how they can be integrated with other sustainable transportation options. • Intelligent Transportation Systems and Traffic Management: This unit will cover the role of intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and traffic management in improving the efficiency, safety, and sustainability of transportation systems. It will explore topics such as real-time traffic information, adaptive signal control, and traffic simulation. • Land Use Planning and Transportation: This unit will discuss the relationship between land use planning and transportation, including how land use patterns can influence travel behavior and transportation emissions. It will cover topics such as transit-oriented development, complete streets, and urban growth boundaries. • Energy and Emissions Analysis: This unit will provide an overview of energy and emissions analysis tools and methods, including life-cycle assessment (LCA) and transport emissions modeling. It will cover the strengths and limitations of these tools and how they can be used to inform sustainable transportation decision-making. • Policy and Financing for Sustainable Transportation: This unit will explore the policy and financing mechanisms that can support sustainable transportation, including regulations, incentives, and funding sources. It will also cover the challenges and opportunities associated with implementing these policies and financing mechanisms.
