Hao Wu
Hao Wu is working as a research associate at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) under the supervision of Professor Dr. Constantinos Antoniou. Hao received his bachelor's degree in Traffic Engineering and Software Engineering in China and his master's degree in Planning and Operations in Transport (Specialization: Transport Modeling and Simulation) from the Technical University of Berlin (TU Berlin). He is currently pursuing his Ph.D. focusing on novel transport concept modeling like urban air mobility (UAM) and evidence-based transport policy.
