About the School
A comprehensive program with theoretical and practical work…
Overview
The Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences, University of Zagreb has long been devoted to providing students with a stimulating environment. We encourage them to become active and independent researchers and develop critical thinking, communication, and problem-solving skills. One of our aims is to train individuals who have a passion for lifelong learning and want to achieve personal and professional growth.
Goal
And that’s why we created the Road Safety Summer School. The main goal of the school is to provide expert training related to advanced concepts and elements of road safety. We increase the knowledge and qualifications of all participants.
Course
During the course of ten days, world-renowned experts from the field will introduce participants to the state-of-the-art findings related to the main factors of road safety: the human factor, the road and its environment, and the vehicle factor.
Practical part
The practical part of the summer school will introduce participants to the basics of traffic accident analysis based on the actual data obtained from a crash test. A field road safety inspection will follow this.
…in beautiful and sunny Croatia
The summer school lasts 10 days, from 02/09 to 11/09/2024, during which the participants will attend theoretical lectures and do practical work. The total duration of the program is 61 hours (1 hour = 60 min). Master’s and Ph.D. students will receive 2 ECTS credits after completing all the planned activities.
Participants will receive a certificate of successful completion. The certificate contains the name of the participant, dates of the summer school, number of lecture hours, the ECTS credits awarded, and the signature of the Dean of the Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences, University of Zagreb.
And the best of it all – the program takes place in wonderful Croatia. There will be a lot of excursions and extracurricular activities for you to enjoy. Apply for the program, improve your knowledge, meet new colleagues from all around the globe, and enjoy yourself.
