Master in Transport

Warsaw University of Technology is the premier technical research university in Poland, combining a rich 200-year history with cutting-edge innovation. It is consistently ranked as the top engineering school in the country, attracting the brightest minds from across the globe.

Transport is a master's programme taught in English at Warsaw University of Technology in Warszawa, running over three semesters. Within the Transport Systems Engineering and Management specialisation, students acquire extended knowledge and skills in road, railway, and municipal transport systems, control and management, and the optimisation and planning of transport systems. The programme also covers transport measurement and forecasting, the design of multimodal transport hubs, and traffic modelling and planning using modern IT tools. Students gain knowledge of automated vehicles and other transport automation solutions and learn about the role of the human factor in intelligent transport systems. Further topics include environmental impact and protection, the principles of shaping transport law and policy, and management of the investment process in transport, including the financing of investment solutions. Example modules include Planning of Transport Systems, Modelling of Transport Processes, Applied Mechanics, Theory of Reliability and Safety, Measurement Systems, Urban and Regional Transport Management, Designing Multimodal Transport Nodes, Systems Vehicles and Infrastructure of Automated Transport, Human Factor in Intelligent Transportation Systems, Managing Investment Process in Transport, and Legal Regulations in Transport Policy. Annual tuition is 5500 EUR. Graduates may pursue careers with companies and local government units involved in planning transport development and carrying out investment processes in transport, alongside roles in traffic engineering, transport consulting, and infrastructure design. Transport systems engineering brings together civil engineering, computer science, and policy analysis to plan, build, and manage networks that move people and goods efficiently. Warsaw's position as Poland's capital and largest transport hub gives students exposure to complex urban, national, and international transport planning challenges throughout their studies, connecting classroom learning to the practical demands of a major metropolitan transport system.
