On November 18, You-Jin Jung successfully defended her PhD thesis in civil engineering, entitled "Enhanced Transit Ridership Forecasting Using Automatic Passenger Counting Data."
The Waterloo Public Transportation Initiative (WPTI) hosted 10 civil engineering and transportation management students from the Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences in Germany for a week-long exchange in early November. The Karlsruhe students worked with civil engineering and planning students from Waterloo to suggest design solutions for five of Grand River Transit's future light rail and bus routes.
