-**Terminology note.** In this document, the SafeAV curriculum is the unified framework that defines the overall programme architecture, the BSc/MSc progression, and the learning flow from theory to V&V practice, aligning the SafeAV Handbook and the Hands-on Guide into a coherent, modular pathway. The subsequent chapters describe the modules as syllabicourse-level maps specifying aims, learning outcomes, topics, assessment, tools, and relevant standardswhich constitute the formal open publication.+**Terminology note.** In this document, the SafeAV curriculum is the unified framework that defines the overall programme architecture, the BSc/MSc progression, and the learning flow from theory to V&V practice, aligning the SafeAV Handbook and the Hands-on Guide into a coherent, modular pathway.

 The SafeAV curriculum architecture defines the overall structure, modular hierarchy, and learning flow that connects theoretical knowledge, simulation-based validation, and experimental practice. It ensures coherence between study levels and provides a clear path from basic understanding to advanced assurance of autonomous vehicle safety.   The SafeAV curriculum architecture defines the overall structure, modular hierarchy, and learning flow that connects theoretical knowledge, simulation-based validation, and experimental practice.

 For this reason, the SafeAV Handbook presents most topics in two levels of depth. Students who already have sufficient background or wish to advance further can continue directly to the next sub-sections, regardless of the formal level assigned to that topic in this curriculum. Conversely, in some non-technical or related engineering programmes, the same subjects might be addressed at a basic level even within Master studies, corresponding to what the SafeAV framework defines as Bachelor-level content. For this reason, the SafeAV Handbook presents most topics in two levels of depth.

-Therefore, the level designation in this curriculum should be interpreted as indicative of content depth—Basic and Advancedrather than as a strict separation between Bachelor and Master academic degrees.+Therefore, the level designation in this curriculum should be interpreted as indicative of content depth—Basic and Advanced rather than as a strict separation between Bachelor and Master academic degrees.
