Mark Hansen

Mark Hansen is a Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of California, Berkeley. His research interests include transportation economics, policy and planning, air transportation, and public transportation. Hansen's work focuses on urban transportation planning, modeling air transport systems, air traffic flow management, and aviation systems performance analysis. He is the Berkeley co-director of the National Center of Excellence in Aviation Operations Research, a multi-university consortium sponsored by the Federal Aviation Administration. Hansen also received the Horonjeff Award for his research work in air transport in 1985.

Mark Hansen is a Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at UC Berkeley, specializing in transportation systems. His research focuses on understanding the complex interactions between transportation infrastructure, demand, and policy. He has conducted extensive studies on traffic dynamics, induced travel demand, and the economic impacts of transportation delays. His work also explores airline competition, aircraft size economics, and the application of data science in aviation. Hansen's research integrates game theory, queuing models, and machine learning to address challenges in air traffic management and urban mobility. His contributions span both theoretical and applied aspects of transportation systems, with a strong emphasis on policy-relevant outcomes.
