Workshop on doctoral research in transportation analysis, planning and policy
The workshop is organized in four parts with five to six presentations each:
Part 1: Data-driven travel behavior analysis
Part 2: Psychological travel and evacuation analyses
Part 3: Land use/transport interactions
Part 4: Autonomous and electric traveling
Every doctoral researcher will give a 5 min lightning talk (plus one minute for transition between presenters) to introduce their topic. At the end of each part, there will be 15 minutes for debate led by an expert in the respective area of research.
Please note times indicated below are pm on Eastern Standard Time (EST).
