Undergraduate Research Opportunities
- I am often looking for undergraduate research assistants with strong skills in GIS and/or Python programming. Please send me a CV if you are interested. Please note that you must be a currently enrolled UCSC student.
Transportation and environment lab
- I often mentor undergraduate urban planning projects that aim to improve transportation in Santa Cruz and on the UCSC campus. You can see examples here. If you have an idea that you'd like to pursue, get in touch.
- I will also be teaching a bicycle planning seminar in Winter 2020, thanks to generous funding from the UCSC Carbon Fund. If you are interested, please get in touch. Non-ENVS majors are welcome, but you should have some experience with courses, internships, or employment in urban planning and/or transportation issues, equivalent to ENVS 145.
