About this position
New York University Abu Dhabi is inviting applications for a Postdoctoral Associate in Transportation Systems and Urban Science to join Professor Monica Menendez’s research group in the Center for Interacting Urban Networks (CITIES) and the Division of Engineering.
The group studies the monitoring, modeling, and control of multimodal transportation systems. Research addresses emerging vehicle technologies and new data sources, combining traditional traffic-flow theory with empirically derived models and data-science approaches. The postdoctoral researcher will contribute to transportation and urban-science research focused on understanding and improving the operation of interacting urban networks.
The position is based at NYU Abu Dhabi, a global research campus in the United Arab Emirates. Researchers work within a multidisciplinary environment spanning engineering, science, social sciences, and other fields, with access to advanced research facilities and support for ambitious research projects. The role also provides opportunities to develop research outputs using dedicated resources for computing, travel, and publications.
