It provides you with the opportunity to delve deeper into risk/safety management or railway communications including the digital railway.<br><br>Railway safety and control systems are both vitally important worldwide, for not only the ongoing operation of existing railways, but also for the design and the development of new systems. Much work is being done by companies involved in both mainline and urban transportation systems to design safe systems, for the public, their passengers, and their workforce. <br><br>This Railway Safety and Control Systems programme focuses on risk and safety systems design, risk and safety systems operation, and communication and control systems (including signalling).
