Transportation and Systems EngineeringThe field of Transportation Systems Engineering (TSE) encompasses a wide range of subjects including, but not limited to, the planning, design, and monitoring of transportation infrastructure, systems safety, applications of emerging and advanced technologies in transportation, network optimization, large-scale micro simulation modeling, and intelligent transportation systems. The program at USF places particular emphasis on the inter-disciplinary nature of the transportation profession with close collaboration with several other fields of inquiry including Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Public Health, Geography, Psychology, Economics, Urban Planning, Anthropology, Public Administration, Business and Logistics, and Statistics. The program at USF emphasizes the multimodal nature of transportation systems and the key roles played by various modes of transportation in ensuring a high level of mobility and accessibility for both people and freight. Transportation engineering is an interdisciplinary field that includes topics in intelligent vehicle/highway systems (IVHS), identification, estimation and control of dynamic traffic systems; traffic flow theory; traffic operations, highway engineering; transportation and economic development; artificial intelligence in transportation; transportation energy conservation; advanced technologies for urban congestion; pavement design; and computer modeling and applications.
