Project Title

Creation and Improvement of Services for Integrated Mobility

Keywords

Integrated mobility, mobility as a service, public transportation, sustainable transportation, governance, synchronization, optimization, business intelligence

Brief Project Description

This project builds upon ongoing efforts to transform public and active transportation offerings, adapting them to new societal and economic realities. In this context, users demand integrated, diversified, and synchronized mobility services to benefit from a quality experience with fast and efficient connections. Such a system must also be sustainable to have a significant impact on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and ensuring equitable access for diverse users while respecting their privacy. This project proposes a synchronization and valorization platform for integrated mobility that aligns with the mobility-as-a-service movement, but is not exclusive to it, as it covers the integration of different public transportation services and adds complementary modes and services such as on-demand transportation and package delivery.

In this context, many candidates for master's and doctoral degrees, as well as postdoctoral researchers, are recruited. Candidates should have an interest and expertise in at least one of the following areas: operations research, transportation, cybersecurity, simulation, economics, game theory, industrial organization, and business models.
