Abstract:

A survey of transportation professionals was conducted to determine their views on the contents of a required transportation course in the Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (BSCE) program. The results are compared with a similar survey of transportation educators. Substantial congruence exists in the views expressed by practitioners and educators. Additional observations and suggestions offered by practitioners to enrich a required course are also presented. It is recommended that topics in transportation engineering receiving a high score from both practitioners and educators be included in a required course in transportation engineering for undergraduates.
