Khandker Nurul Habib

Khandker Nurul Habib is a Professor in the Department of Civil & Mineral Engineering at the University of Toronto. His research focuses on transportation engineering and planning, with an emphasis on sustainable infrastructure. His work involves developing mathematical and behavioural models to understand human movement patterns and responses to urban infrastructure changes. He specializes in integrated land use and transport modelling, activity-based travel modelling, and survey design. Habib is also involved in transport policy, economics, and transportation in developing countries. He holds the Percy Edward Hart Professor title and is affiliated with several research groups, including the Centre for Automated and Transformative Transportation Systems (CATTS) and the U of T Climate Positive Initiative.

Khandker Nurul Habib is a researcher in the Department of Civil & Mineral Engineering at the University of Toronto, specializing in transportation planning, travel demand modelling, choice modelling, econometric modelling, and land use transportation interactions. His work explores the effects of built environment and weather on bike sharing demand, the behavior of carsharing users, and the integration of land use and transportation models for the autonomous vehicle revolution. He has also investigated commuting trip timing, mode choice, and the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on travel behavior. His research emphasizes the application of econometric and choice models to understand and predict travel patterns, with a focus on equity, sustainability, and urban mobility.
