Program overview
Intelligent Transportation Engineering, simply put, equips traditional transportation with a "brain." You'll learn how to use technologies like artificial intelligence, big data, and the Internet of Things to make trains, cars, planes, and subways run more efficiently, safely, and environmentally friendly. Core courses include: Fundamentals of Transportation Engineering, Machine Learning and Data Mining, Intelligent Transportation Systems, Autonomous Driving Technology, Rail Transit Signaling and Control, and Transportation Big Data Analysis. This major is especially suitable for students interested in "vehicle-infrastructure cooperation" and "autonomous driving," who also enjoy programming and data analysis. Chinese universities have unique strengths in this field—for example, Beijing Jiaotong University and Southwest Jiaotong University have real rail transit test lines and intelligent transportation simulation platforms, allowing you to access the industry's cutting-edge equipment on campus. Moreover, many courses incorporate real Chinese cases, such as high-speed rail scheduling and urban congestion management, making learning very practical.
