PIANIFICAZIONE DEI TRASPORTI

Provide the knowledge and skills necessary to address the typical problems of Transport Engineering with a systemic approach, achieved in the perspective of their planning and integration with other systems at territorial and urban level

Teaching takes place through a series of lectures, classroom exercises and in-depth seminars. A guided visit of the Catania underground works will be carried out, based on the availability of the company responsible for the works.
