It would be advisable to have a basic knowledge of some mathematical tools optimization program (Mathematica, Matlab, GAMS).
Basic training for the curriculum of students in the infrastructure and transport services area. The course deals with a set of specific topics unrelated to other sectors in which the link is the tools for optimisation and the mathematical formalisation of some of the problems inherent to the business management of the transport area.
