Under the auspices of the Graduate College, the interdisciplinary Certificate in Transportation Systems program is administered by the Committee on Transportation Systems. The objective of this program is to enable existing ASU graduate students and transportation professionals with advanced degrees to examine transportation-related issues from a variety of perspectives and in the context of different travel modes.
The certificate program requires a minimum of 15 semester hours of course work. To qualify for the certificate, the student must complete an interdisciplinary issues proseminar class (three semester hours), complete three elective courses (nine semester hours) from an approved list of transportation-related courses in at least two disciplines that are outside the student’s degree program, and complete a capstone research paper that explores a transportation problem from a multidisciplinary perspective (three semester hours). A thesis in the area of transportation may substitute for the capstone paper.
Master’s degree candidates in good standing in participating departments or current practicing professionals who already hold a graduate degree may apply for admission to the certificate program. The applications will be reviewed by the Transportation Systems Certificate Admissions and Advisory Committee, made up of representatives of participating departments. Enrollment in all classes outside the major requires permission of the instructor. For more information, contact the interim director, 602/965–6395.
