Hello, my name is Truyen Le-Minh. I am from Vietnam and currently a Master’s student at the Cho Chun Shik Graduate School of Mobility at KAIST. I received my Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering, and during the final year of my undergraduate studies, I conducted research in the field of transportation economics, focusing on passenger satisfaction and loyalty in the urban rail system of Hanoi, Vietnam. This experience motivated me to further pursue research in transportation, which led me to apply for a Master’s degree at KAIST under the Global Korea Scholarship program. My goal is to deepen my knowledge and contribute to research in this field. Outside of academics, I enjoy playing volleyball and hiking.
“Three PTV Certified Trainers have been produced at KAIST.”
For the first time in Korea, researchers from KAIST (Professor Inhi Kim, Dr. Tae-ho Oh, and researcher Tae-kyun Kim) have become Certified Trainers.
In the future, those who receive PTV software training at KAIST will be provided with an official PTV certificate.
You can participate in training for a total of five software programs: Visum, Vissim, VisWalk, VisVap, and Vistro.
The 2025 scholars of the NSF-funded Interdisciplinary Research in Smart City (IRSC) program (https://nsfsmartcity.org/2024-scholars-copy/) visited the TUPA Lab at KAIST. During their visit, they engaged in meaningful discussions with KAIST students on the latest research trends in the field of smart cities.
Notably, Yunha Lee(https://science.ytn.co.kr/program/view.php?mcd=0082&key=202505191643243874), a student from Taejon Christian International School (TCIS), joined the TUPA Lab as an intern and delivered a presentation on smart signal systems. We were honored to welcome the group, led by Professor Young-Jae Lee from Morgan State University, and sincerely thank him for guiding and accompanying the students throughout the program.
The 2025 cohort of the Interdisciplinary Research in Smart City (IRSC) program, supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF), comprises six U.S. undergraduate and graduate students selected for their academic excellence and research potential. This fully funded, eight-week program offers participants the opportunity to engage in smart city research at Seoul National University (SNU) in South Korea. The program includes research internships, cultural experiences, and professional development activities.
- Topic: Understanding Dockless Shared E-Scooter Travel Behavior: A Data-Driven Approach to Trip Purpose Classification
- Conference: 2025 Suwon ITS AP Forum
The Chungcheongnam-do Office of Education Institute of Science hosted the 16th Chungnam Science & Creativity Festival on May 16-17, 2025, bringing together students, teachers, and local communities to explore the future of science and technology.
This year’s theme, “Brighten Our World, Green Earth, Better Future”, focused on tackling climate change and environmental issues through science and technology. With 63 exciting programs, including exhibitions, performances, hands-on activities, and lectures, it was a truly engaging event. 🌿🌞
As part of KAIST Mobility Lab, we were proud to contribute to the event. It was a great opportunity to engage with the community and share our insights on sustainable mobility and innovative solutions for a better future.
Thank you to all who made this event possible. We look forward to future collaborations
