Graduate Students

Below are graduate students under my supervision.

January 12th, 2016 at Tony Cheng in Washington, D.C. (L to R): Javier (son), Leah (wife), Mr. Hadi Khazraee (Ph.D. candidate), Dr. Lingtao Wu, me, Dr. Srinivas Geedipally, Dr. Chung-Wei Shen (husband of Pei-Fen and former A&M student in our program), Dr. Pei-Fen Kuo, Dr. Byung-Jung Park, Dr. Myunghoon Ko, Mr. Thanh Le. Missing, but were in Washington: Dr. Yichuan Peng, Ms. Vichika Iragavarapu, Mr. Mohammadali Shirazi

February 28th, 2008: (L to R) Kyuntae, Pei-Fen, Fan, Byung Jung, me, Thanh, Sriram, Srinivas, Hien, Mehdi Dr. Hawkin’s Student), and Soma (a Ph.D. student in statistics who has an interest in highway safety)

February 28th, 2008 – Relaxing while enjoying healthy food

February 19, 2009: (L to R) Myunghoon, Yajie, Yichuan, Byung-Jung, Srinivas, me, Thanh, Sandra (Ph.D. student from Portugal), Mehdi, Pei-Fen, Fan and Hien

These pictures were taken at one of our bi-weekly meetings. These meetings are used to provide a venue for the students to share their most recent research work activities and improve their presentation skills. Each student, on a rotational basis, presents a short presentation on a relevant research topic.
