Vocational orientation
For this year's Girls' Day on 22 April 2021, the "Friedrich List" Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences is offering five exciting digital formats for schoolgirls.
Whether it's lectures, workshops or experiments - everywhere you go, it's all about the multifaceted research and professional fields of transport and mobility. Studying transport and ttaffic sciences? Yes, it's possible! On Girls' Day, schoolgirls can find out what's behind it.
The five preparatory teams have focused on current questions that are to be answered together with the participants, such as:
- Can we protect the climate by travelling by bus and train?
- Why are there also roads on the railway?
- What does the energy and mobility transition have to do with real life?
- What are the cornerstones to make automated and connected driving possible?
- How does a traffic jam happen - and how can it be resolved?
Studying transport and traffic sciences - broad studies and many career opportunities
You can study transport and traffic sciences. However, it is not only about the technology of vehicles and their drives, but also about the planning of an optimal infrastructure for all road users, research on safety to prevent accidents, sustainable solutions for new forms of transport and logistics of goods, and so on. Everyone takes part in the traffic system every day - on foot, on a bike, in a tram or train, in a car and maybe even in a plane on holiday. Ensuring that everything runs smoothly - punctual departure times, no accidents, fast boarding, etc. - everything to do with transport research and planning.
Added to this are climate protection and sustainability. Transport and Traffic play a key role in this all over the world. At the "Friedrich List" Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences , we research and teach today how and with what we want to be mobile and get around tomorrow - safely, efficiently and sustainably. Graduates of the faculty are therefore sought-after specialists - both nationally and internationally.
The proportion of women among students at the Faculty of Transport Sciences "Friedrich List" is
