  3. Appraise Irish transport projects across social, economic, environmental and political criteria
  4. Understand sustainable transport practice and how it applies to Dublin
  5. Describe the planning process and demand forecasting, with Irish examples
  6. Model route, mode and destination choice: regression, gravity, discrete choice and user equilibrium
  7. Solve and design transport problems in a team with transport software
