Sean Qian, assistant professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering, has been awarded the National Science Foundation (NSF) Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER) Award, complete with $500,000 in funding for the next five years.
Qian is working with big data and transportation system modeling to develop a mathematical framework that would reduce the strains that traffic puts on our transportation systems. This would improve not only the flow of traffic, but also the way we design, plan and operate transportation systems.
