2. Célkitűzések és tanulási eredmények
2.1 Célkitűzések
The aim of the course is to acquire design knowledge related to railway stations. Students have an existing railway station (with geometry), they have to upgraded it. This task can be executed through steps of the upgrade planning up to the parts of the work to be completed (site plan, longitudinal section, cross section, drainage), with continuous instructors' guidance (consultation). They also receive tangential information about the tasks in the 'field of specialities'.

3.6 Javítás és pótlás
- Homework – in addition to paying the fee specified in the regulations – is delayed in the “Detailed semester schedule”.
- Due to its nature, active participation cannot be replaced or improved.
- The control tests (ED1 and ED2) can be replaced or improved for the first time (the date is according to the "Detailed semester schedule") free of charge. In case of correction (improvement), the new result overwrites the previous result in all cases.
- If the student is not able to obtain a grade other than insufficient (scoreless) even with the replacement according to point 3), so – in addition to paying the fee specified in the regulations - a second, repeated attempt can do to improve the first replacement of one of the failed control test in the 'replacement week'.
