Education in Transportation Engineering

GW coursework prepares students for exciting futures in engineering. Specific plans of study are arranged with students based on their individual educational and research requirements. For example engineering students (e.g. from CEE, MAE, or ECE departments) enroll in a variety of SEAS courses that support the interdisciplinary framework of the ITS curriculum. In addition to these courses, CISR may occasionally offer training seminars and short courses in these topics. The following is a partial list of courses:
