IGERT: Computational Transportation Educational Program August 22, 2007 Bob Sloan

Big Picture: Ph.D. PLUS Every IGERT Fellow will complete all requirements for Ph.D. from “home” department/school (currently Computer Science, Grad School of Business, Urban Planning and Policy, Civil Eng.) IGERT Fellows will additionally complete IGERT course requirements –Can use IGERT requirement for home Ph.D. requirements

Nuts & Bolts: Required IGERT Courses 1.Urban Planning and Policy 560, Urban Transportation I. This fall for introduction to Urban Transportation. All IGERT Fellows expected to take this their first fall unless already taken. 2.CME 508, Urban Travel Forecasting. Offered this fall; likely to be offered every fall. 3.IDS 594, IT & Economics of Urban Transportation. Offered this fall; new course designed for IGERT; next offering Spring 2009 (with new #).

IGERT Required Courses (cont) 4.CS/UPP 5??, Computational Transportation Principles. Core of the subject; offered last spring; next offered this spring (??). Take at first opportunity. 5.GC 495 (last time)/CS ??: Privacy, Security, Ethics, & Legal issues Offered last summer; possibly this spring as cross list with Kent/IIT law school

Nuts & bolts: Bean counting You must both –Take all 5 required courses –Complete your home department’s PhD requirements Example: Computer Science PhD course requirements: –We will count Comp. Trans. Principles & Ethics as classes inside CS; we allow 2 outside CS; students may wind up taking one “extra” course relative to other CS PhDs.

Fall 2007 for new students Required IGERT Course: UPP 560 One course from home department Either zero or one more course, depending on your advisor’s wishes, (maybe 2 more if really concentrating on courses vs. research this semester). Seminar series and other IGERT activities

Overall Program expectations 4 Years to Ph.D. Full-time, 12 months/year, especially while on IGERT Fellow paycheck Summers=research time, & maybe ethics/privacy course one summer Weekly seminar almost year round; attendance expected Small research project this spring semester for new students; minor submission from it Foreign experience for most or all, probably typically summer after year 2.

Foreign experience Continuing students, start discussing our foreign partners with your advisor now! We’ve been generously funded for Fellows’ foreign research visits. Have some funds for shorter exploratory visits around winter or spring break Hope many of you will spend 1–3 months abroad this summer.

Idea: New field and home base Each of you will help us build the new discipline of computational transportation; we’ll all need some common knowledge in both transportation and computer/information science Also, each of you will be legitimate traditional Ph.D.
