    LEARNING AND TEACHING METHODS
    Key learning and teaching methods include:
    Lectures and group discussion of core themes and concepts. These are delivered by academic staff members. Lectures include in-depth discussion of theories, solution methods and algorithms required for the design of transport infrastructure. Two hours of lectures are offered for each week of the academic program. Five modules are covered in the lectures and each module is assessed by a group project, and in the final exam.
    Engagement with required and suggested readings and design guidelines. Students are expected to undertake a minimum 2 hours per week of reading and resource review to support concept acquisition and knowledge contextualisation.
    Tutorial and tutorial exercises in smaller-group format. This approach includes in-depth presentation and discussion of problems, and step-by-step design exercises. Tutors are primarily drawn from the specialist lecturers tutoring in smaller groups, on specialised topics, with reference to the weekly tutorial exercises. Two hour of tutorial time is available per week of the program.
