COURSES

In spring 2022, we launched a public online lecture series ‘Mobility Analysis and Planning for Human-Scale Cities’ featuring mobility and transportation experts and leading scholars worldwide. In 2023 we started our second season of lectures.

Check out the recordings of both seasons and more information about the current lecture series at https://transportplanning.ut.ee/.
