Dr. Husain Aziz is an Associate Professor of Civil Engineering at Kansas State University. He leads the Transportation Infrastructure & Systems (TIS) Labs, focusing on the intersection of AI/ML, connected and automated vehicles (CAVs), and modeling large-scale transportation systems. He leads teams that fuse CV2X, weather, infrastructure, and operations data into explainable models and digital twins, leveraging graph learning, mathematical optimization, reinforcement learning, and simulation-based optimization to improve road safety, mobility, and infrastructure resilience. 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 served 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.
