Unite! teaching initiative focusing on the safety of underground transport infrastructure
This Unite! Seed Fund project aims to fill the gap of learning initiatives about underground transportation within the European academic education and offer a dedicated summer school focusing on the safety of underground transport infrastructure.
Transport infrastructure is the backbone of the European economy. Thus, safety of the infrastructure must be ensured to achieve high availability. Underground transport infrastructure represents a special case in this context but is at the same time under-represented in European academic education. This Seed Fund project aims to fill this gap and offer a dedicated summer school focusing on the safety of underground transport infrastructure. The project team of TU Darmstadt, TU Graz, Politecnico di Torino and Wroclaw Tech comprises experience in automotive, energy and civil engineering as well as in transport safety, thus, representing a unique unity that enables a holistic view on the topic.
