Hao Wu

Hao Wu is working as a research associate at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Constantinos Antoniou. Hao received his bachelor's degree in Traffic Engineering & Software Engineering in China and his master's degree in Planning and Operations in Transport (Specialization: Transport Modeling and Simulation) from the Technical University of Berlin (TU Berlin). He is currently pursuing his Ph.D. focusing on urban air mobility (UAM) & novel transport concept modeling.
