Future of Transportation
We believe in achieving a more sustainable world through transport systems that are based on the design and deployment of low-emission solutions and on the prioritization of sustainable modes of transportation to help our society reduce energy consumption, pollution, and congestion, and increase safety.
We educate professionals on technologies and practices to improve and accelerate the deployment of sustainable, safe, efficient, and fair transport systems, focusing on critical areas such as:
- Sustainable transportation systems, to understand how innovations play a role in reducing congestion and emissions, and how to make transportation more sustainable by adopting electric and hybrid vehicles, integrating renewable energy sources in all transport modes, promoting non-motorised travel in cities, and implementing efficient public transportation.
- Safe, secure, and inclusive transportation systems, to effectively address the diverse needs of users and create a reliable and user-friendly transportation ecosystem; to apply integrated human-centered design and prioritize safety, security, and inclusivity.
- Ethical and responsible innovation in transportation, to develop and implement technological advancements with careful consideration for their societal, environmental, and ethical impacts to ensure that technological progress in transportation aligns with broader societal values and needs.
- Automation, Big Data and AI, to understand how automation can boost transport efficiency, safety, and inclusivity; to apply Big Data to facilitate informed decision-making and proactive traffic management; and to use AI to tailor transport services to individual preferences, optimise routes, and predict failures or incidents – whilst being aware of both opportunities and risks.
Our courses and programmes are specifically tailored for computer, logistics, transport and environmental engineers, tech entrepreneurs, and data scientists. To all who wish to build their knowledge and skills to find solutions to reduce harmful emissions and congestion and make transport over land, air, and water cleaner, faster, safer, more comfortable, and more affordable.
They are also of value to other interested professionals such as social entrepreneurs, policy makers, teachers, and safety managers and consultants.
United Nations Sustainable Development Goals
Our courses and programs are aligned with several of the UN SDGs. By equipping learners with the necessary knowledge and skills, we aim to accellerate the positive impact individuals and organisations can have on the challenges we collectively face. Our Future of Transportation portfolio contributes to the goals below.
