Improving your commute

Improving your commute

Dr. Lina Kattan, PhD, holds the Urban Alliance Research Professorship in Transportation Systems Optimization. She’s developing solutions for Calgary’s growing community, researching attitudes towards autonomous vehicles, real-time transit information, the cost of road congestion and more.

Building bridges that last

Building bridges that last

Dr. Mamdouh El-Badry, PhD, and his research team have developed a hybrid concrete and glass-fibre-reinforced polymer bridge system in place of today’s steel-reinforced concrete bridge girders. This solution is stronger, maintenance free and could last three times longer than traditional bridges.

Engineering sustainable communities

Engineering sustainable communities

Dr. Kerry Black is working with Indigenous communities on urgent infrastructure issues across Canada. She is passionate about cross-disciplinary research that combines policy, socio-economics and community partnerships with civil and environmental engineering –with the goal of creating healthy, resilient communities.
