This vocational Masters programme is designed for students from a wide range of backgrounds and equips them for a professional career. Transport Planners play a key role in business and in society, by ensuring that transport systems are efficient, equitable, safe and environmentally sound. To do so they need to understand the core principles, techniques and concepts which underpin the discipline. This programme engages students with a highly applied and practical subject area, which is both academically rigorous and vocationally rewarding.

Employability Jobs and Careers The transport sector continues to need people with the right skills and training. Students progress from the programme to a range of graduate-level jobs including those in consultancy, government, transport operators, not-for-profit and international agencies. ITS supports this via our close links with employers. Accreditation The programme is recognised by the major professional bodies in the transport sector. It is approved as further learning for holders of accredited degrees seeking Chartered Engineer (CEng) status via the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) or Institution of Highways and Transportation (IHT). It also fulfills the educational requirements for membership of Chartered Institute for Logistics and Transport (CILT UK) and is a pathway to the Transport Planning Professional (TPP) qualification. www.its.leeds.ac.uk/courses/masters/accreditation Admission Requirements Applicants should have, or be expecting to achieve, a good honours degree in engineering or a related discipline.
