Short Bio
Dewitt Greer Professor of Civil, Architectural & Environmental Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin, KaraKockelman is a registered professional engineer and holds a Ph.D. MS, and BS in civil engineering, a master’s of city planning, and a minor in economics from the University of California at Berkeley. Dr. Kockelman has been a professor of transportation engineering at the University of Texas at Austin for 22 years. She is primary and co-author of over 170 journal articles (and two books) across a variety of subjects, nearly all of which involve transportation-related data analysis. Her primary research interests include planning for shared and autonomous vehicle systems, the statistical modeling of urban systems (including models of travel behavior, trade, and location choice), energy and climate issues (vis-à-vis transport and land use decisions), the economic impacts of transport policy, and crash occurrence and consequences. Her CV and paper pre-prints can be found at www.caee.utexas.edu/prof/kockelman.
