Transportation & Urban Infrastructure Studies (TUIS)
Bachelor of Science (BS), Transportation Systems
DescriptionThe B.S. degree program in Transportation Systems provides a curriculum that prepares students for entry-level professional positions in transportation planning, systems analysis, management, and logistics; or for pursuing advanced studies. The program is technical with an applied science focus and requires a minimum of 120 credit hours of courswork, which includes 40 credit hours in general education courses, 19 credit hours in mathematics and science, 56 credit hours in core courses, 2 credit hours in University requirements, and 3 credit hours in electives1. The core courses expose the students to the major transportaiton concentration areas, including planning, engineering, economics, management, and logistics. The Transportation Systems program is accredited by the Applied and Natural Science Accreditation Commission (ANSAC) of ABET, http://www.ABET.org.
