1. Fully Funded PhD Position in Personalized and Automated Transportation
Summary of PhD Program:
Emerging transport technologies such as automated vehicles (AVs) may hold out great benefits to the urban environment and various travelers, yet AV’s impact on specific groups with unique characteristics has hardly been explored in the literature, not to mention the lack of empirical evidence. The main objective of the proposed study is to fill this gap by exploring the mobility behavior, preferences, and needs of unique groups and to develop optimal automated mobility solutions for them using state-of-the-art simulation tools that closely mimic reality.
Application Deadline: 15.12.2024
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Business, Economics and Finance
Summary of PhD Program:
