Dr. Husain Aziz is an assistant professor of civil engineering at Kansas State University and leads the Transportation Infrastructure and Systems (TIS) research lab focusing on the modeling, simulation, and optimization of traffic flows in smart cities, shared-used mobility, and resilient transportation systems. Dr. Aziz co-leads the transportation infrastructure theme of the ARISE (Adaptive and Resilient Infrastructures Driven by Social Equity) project funded by the National Science Foundation (https://nsfepscor.ku.edu/track-1-arise/). He received his M.S. and Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Austin and Purdue University in 2010 and 2014, respectively, and his B.Sc. degree from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology in 2007. Before joining K-State Civil Engineering, Dr. Aziz held an R&D scientist position at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory of the U.S. Department of Energy (2014 – 2019). He also serves as the associate editor of the IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems and the Journal of Intelligent Transportation Systems (Taylor & Francis). He is a full member of the ASCE, ITE, and IEEE. Aziz serves as a peer-reviewer for several SJR Q1 journals and as a grant proposal reviewer for different funding agencies.
