Areas of specialization	Infrastructure Planning and Management Traffic Engineering
Laboratory/research office	Urban and Transport Planning Laboratory The Urban and Transport Planning Lab contributes to the creation of sustainable urban and transport systems. We are committed to research and development towards the resolution of recent urban and transport issues. This work involves the collection and utilization of huge data sets obtained by monitoring real world phenomena. We aim to generate urban and transport innovation in response to low birth rate and aging population challenges.
