Bai Qiang, Ph.D., associate professor, doctoralresearchsupervisor, candidate of the Hundred Young Talents Program of Shaanxi Province, young Chang'an Scholar of Chang'an University. In 2003 and 2006, he graduated from Chang'an University with a bachelor's degree in transportation engineering and a master's degree in transportation planning and management. In 2012, he received a PhD degree in Civil Engineering (Traffic Engineering) from Purdue University. The doctoral dissertation won the Wootan Award for the 2012 CUTC Excellent Doctoral Dissertation Award in the United States. From 2006 to 2007, he worked as a traffic investment account manager at the Hubei branch of the China Development Bank; from 2013 to 2015, he worked as a traffic consulting engineer at Jacobs (CH2M Hill), an American international engineering consulting company. The research direction is transportation asset management and transportation planning. Since 2015, he has presided over 4 vertical topics and multiple horizontal topics including the National Key Special Projects of the Ministry of Science and Technology, the National Natural Science Foundation of China, the Natural Science Foundation of Shaanxi Province, and the Civil Aviation Administration of China.He hadpublished more than 20 academic papers in SCIjournals.
