Transportation Engineering
Transportation Engineering is a field of Civil Engineering dealing with the analysis, design, construction, performance monitoring, and optimization of transportation infrastructure. The field of transportation engineering can be broadly divided into two specific areas: (1) Transportation Systems, and (2) Transportation Facilities. Boise State offers a Transportation Systems area of focus.
