Advanced Transportation Engineering

CE452 Advanced Transportation Engineering (IIT BHU 7th Semester Course)

In this course, you will discover how cities move and how we should plan for a sustainable future in mobility. To do so, CE452 is designed as an important upgrade with system-level thinking and modelling to go beyond highways (CE251), railways (CE351), and traffic flow (CE353) and to explore the future of mobility through data, modelling, and emerging technologies. From metro systems to freight transport, this course equips you with the tools to solve real-world transportation challenges and shape smarter, more sustainable cities.
