    What is a BA in Transportation Design? Transportation deals with the machines and tools that move people and goods from one place to another, including trains, cars, boats and planes. The design aspect comes in with aesthetics, sustainability and efficiency. Possible courses include engineering, alternative fuel sources, aquatic safety and future market trends. Some programs include the opportunity for hands-on learning.

    Some skills you can gain during this program include fine motor skills, an eye for detail and critical thinking. With fine motor skills and an eye for detail, you can tackle problems involving small pieces. Critical thinking helps design solutions to such problems.
