We are seeking prospective graduate students and funded postdocs with an interest safety engineering(human behavior, psychological experiments, physiological signal measurement and analysis etc.)
Especially we focused on the experimental approaches.
Research Overview and Educational Policy
Target
- Evacuation behavior for risk assessment in smoke
- quantitative fire safety assessment(micro to macro)
- firefighters risk assessment
Education policy
To solve and improve the problem, we need to conduct the experiment for your experience. You can learn the step and strategy of the new issues from experiments.
