Biography:

Amir M. Molan is an Assistant Professor at the University of Mississippi. He obtained his BS and MS degrees from Azad University in Tehran, Iran, and his doctoral degree from Wayne State University. To date, he has served as the first author and co-author of over 50 peer-reviewed scientific articles in civil engineering journals and conferences. One of Amir's articles has been selected as the 2018 best paper in the ASCE Journal of Transportation Engineering.

Amir has also been the principal investigator (PI) or Co-PI for seven research projects funded by state DOTs and UTCs, totaling over one million dollars in funding. He is an active researcher in the field of alternative intersections, traffic operation analysis, highway safety, Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), and traffic simulation modeling. Particularly, Amir is interested in evaluating innovative designs to enhance the performance of existing interchanges and intersections, providing better service for all transportation users (drivers, pedestrians, bicyclists, etc.). Amir has invented multiple designs for intersections and interchanges, including an interchange design called a super DDI (super diverging diamond interchange) as an alternative for failing interchanges.
