PLAN 738: Transportation Policy: Assignments

REQUIREMENTS AND GRADING

Students will prepare one group assignment, two individual homework assignments, and a final paper. The final paper will undergo several revisions in order to guarantee a quality product. A problem statement and a preliminary draft will be required. I encourage you to begin thinking about a transportation policy problem early in the semester. Additional handouts will describe assignments in additional detail.
