1. Introduction to mobility
1.1 What is mobility?
1.2 The evolution of mobility: farther, faster, more distance
2. The means of transport
2.1 The means of transport: the instruments to move
2.2 Access to means of transport
2.3 Transport for all
3. The main determinants of the forms of mobility and transport
3.1 Mobility and urban form
3.2 Mobility and socioeconomic factors
3.3 Habits, ideology and beliefs behind modes of transport
4. The costs of mobility
4.1 Environmental costs
4.2 Social costs
4.3 Health costs
4.4 Economic costs
5. Future scenarios: challenges and solutions in the context of the Smart City
5.1 Defining the objectives of the future mobility model
5.2 Clean technologies
5.3 Automation
5.4 Personal mobility vehicles
5.5 Utopias
6. Sources for studying mobility
6.1. Quantitative sources in the study of supply
6.2. Quantitative sources in the study of demand
6.3. Qualitative sources in the study of mobility

The subject will be structured based on directed and autonomous activities, where students will learn interactively with the contents of the program, with the help and support of the teacher.
The subject includes classes led by the teacher, exhibitions and discussions of students, with the collaboration of external experts from different fields.
All the activities in class will have a bibliographic support that the students will have at the beginning of the course. Activities that cannot be done in person will be adapted to the possibilities offered by the UAB's virtual tools. The exercises, projects and theoretical classes will be carried out through virtual tools, such as tutorials, videos, team sessions, etc. The teacher will ensure that the student can access it or offer alternative means, which are available to them.
Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.
