About Me
Dr. Joyoung Lee is an associate professor with the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at New Jersey Institute of Technology. Before he joined NJIT, he served as laboratory manager in the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Saxton Transportation Operations Laboratory (STOL) at the Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center. Dr. Lee’s major research interest lies in Connected Vehicle (CV) and its applications to (1) traffic management, i.e. CV-based route guidance system; (2) traffic signal controls, i.e., CV-based real-time intersection control; and (3) cooperative vehicle intersection control (CVIC) for autonomous cars. Dr. Lee has authored and co-authored peer-reviewed journal papers and conference proceeding papers since 2008. Dr. Lee is the recipient of the Best Paper Award at the 2019 IEEE Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAVS) Vehicular Technology Society Conference and the Honorable Mention from the ASCE Grand Challenge Innovation Contest in 2017. He also received the best paper awards at the 14th and 10th PTV VISSIM/VISSUM User Group Meetings in 2012 and 2008 and Excellence in Research Award from the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at University of Virginia in 2011.
