The Senate of the University of Moratuwa has approved the proposal submitted by the Department of Civil Engineering to introduce the 'Transportation Engineering' stream to the degree program from 2020 intake onwards. This new stream will be conducted by the Transportation Engineering Division of the Civil Engineering Department.
Students have the option of qualifying for the specialization stream by selecting elective modules in transportation engineering offered in the final two semesters and conducting their research project in the relevant area. The department also added three new elective modules: Railway and Airport Engineering, Intelligent Transport Systems, Operations Research for Infrastructure Systems as elective modules to the curriculum as part of the introduction of the new stream".
