Graduate studies in English

The Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences, University of Zagreb starts the new study program in English language, “LogisTics And mobiLity ManagEmeNT – TALENT”.

The innovative study program TALENT attracts many foreign students increasing academic mobility and knowledge transfer. The individual teaching approach enables students to acquire competencies that ensure competitiveness in the domestic and international labour market. The call for the expression of interest is opened for enrolment and we are looking forward to receive your applications.

More details are available in documents here and applications are possible here.

The new graduate university study program TALENT has been reviewed by international experts and verified by Croatian Ministry of Science and Education. Teaching of TALENT is performed in person and online (up to 20% of the classes) at the Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences. The program is performed in cooperation with the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture and the Faculty of Organization and Informatics, both from University of Zagreb, thereby, ensuring an interdisciplinary teaching approach.

The idea for the new study program TALENT came from the growing need for the sustainable mobility of people, goods, and information. Especially as sustainable mobility has been recognized as a key driver of economic growth. The implementation of new technologies and processes that align with the current technological and IT achievements in transport and logistics has opened great opportunities for creating new job positions that require new competencies and knowledge.

The four-semester program TALENT includes mandatory courses, a large number of elective courses, a project task, and the master’s thesis. The courses provide students with the knowledge and skills in logistics and mobility management in line with labor market needs.

The students of TALENT will have an opportunity to work in over a dozen modern laboratories and cooperate with internationally recognized experts in data mining applications, intelligent logistics services, advanced traffic management systems, e-maintenance in transport and logistics, smart railways, virtual reality in transport and logistics, continuous improvement methodologies, design thinking in digital transformation, communication security in transportation, reverse logistics, quality management, etc.

Additionally, internationally distinguished professors cooperate also as guest lecturers. For example, Prof. André Luiz Cunha from the Department of Transport Engineering, São Carlos School of Engineering (EESC), University of São Paulo (USP), Brazil denotes TALENT as a needed modern answer to the challenges of new mobility approaches, Prof. Florin Codrut Nemtanu from the Telematics and Electronics for Transport Department, Faculty of Transports, Politehnica University of Bucharest, Romania denotes TALENT as a powerful integration of new technologies for solving future mobility issues, and Prof. Mateusz Zajac from the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Wrocław University of Science and Technology, Poland denotes TALENT as a study program that augments current approaches to solving logistics problems related to intermodal freight transport and electromobility.

The study program was developed within the project “LoMI – crossing borders through internationalization” which was co-financed from the Operational program Efficient Human Resources 2014-2020 of the European Social Fund.

Comments

"In today’s transport systems, the crucial problem is solving the mobility problem ensuring human well-being in urban areas with minimal pollution, congestion and enlargement of current transport infrastructure. To ensure this, new mobility experts need to apply services from the domain of intelligent transportation systems combined with statistical analysis, stochastic modeling, data science, learning-based traffic control systems, fast communication infrastructure, and software development ensuring the implementation of concepts of autonomous driving, mobility as a service and sustainable traffic management integrated with public and emergency services on the whole city level. This is emphasized in the newly formed master study “Logistics and Mobility Management” at the University of Zagreb Faculty and Transport and Traffic Sciences with courses like Sustainable Transport Systems, Introduction to Data Science, Communication Systems, Microsimulations in Road Transport, Advanced Traffic Control Systems, and Mobility Management. Thus, knowledge from the transport domain is augmented with knowledge from other engineering domains extensively used for solving current mobility issues creating experts needed in today’s traffic control centers."

"The newly formed master study “Logistics and Mobility Management” at the University of Zagreb Faculty and Transport and Traffic Sciences is adapted to the needs of today’s job market. Classic topics important for road transport related to transport planning, infrastructure, evacuation and emergency management, road safety, and microscopic simulations are augmented with currently developed concepts like smart city, data science, virtual reality, control systems based on artificial intelligence, sustainability, communication systems, and intelligent transportation systems. Thus, newly formed experts will get insight into how to enhance current approaches for improving road transport using the newest technologies. Integration of knowledge from different engineering domains enables the experts to extensively verify all newly proposed solutions in realistic microscopic simulations, lowering the risk of implementing unsuitable traffic solutions."

"Logistics have throughout history always been crucial to ensuring the delivery of goods for industry production and human wellbeing. They have an important role today and especially in the multimodal supply chains where new issues arise to be solved using currently developed technologies. In this sense, the newly formed master study “Logistics and Mobility Management” at the University of Zagreb Faculty and Transport and Traffic Sciences enriches logistic experts with knowledge related to continuous development, smart reverse logistics, human factors, e-maintenance, data mining, optimization, and improved simulation approaches enabling them to successfully cope with issues in today's supply chains. Emphasis on statistical analysis, stochastic modeling, data science, sustainability, and new approaches in warehouse management gives an edge in improving current distribution logistics approaches to solve issues related to the uncertainty of goods delivery in today’s disrupted global supply chains."
