Advisory Prerequisite: None . Enforced Prerequisite: (CEE 373 and CEE 450) or graduate standing. Minimum grade requirement of “C” for enforced prerequisite. (3 credits) Foundational concepts of travel behavior theory, data, modeling, and analysis are introduced. Fundamental behavioral theories influencing actions and decisions are examined, along with types of data used to study transport-related choices. Building on these concepts, the derivation and application of discrete choice models for passenger travel demand are presented, with emphasis placed on both analysis and forecasting. A background in statistics and an introduction to transportation engineering are recommended.
