Dr. Abhilash Chandra Singh

Dr Abhilash C. Singh is a Research Fellow in Transportation Engineering at Trinity College Dublin, where he investigates the socioeconomic and spatial determinants of electric mobility adoption, focusing on public acceptance and financial barriers. Previously, he was a Postdoctoral Researcher on the ISCycle project at the University of Limerick's School of Allied Health and an instructor in the Department of Civil Engineering.

His research spans urban planning, travel behaviour modelling, and sustainable transportation, emphasizing econometric and machine learning methodologies to analyse human choice behaviour. He aims to enhance our understanding of decision-making processes related to daily activities, residential location choices, and electric vehicle adoption. Additionally, he is interested in addressing endogeneity in econometric models, optimizing energy consumption behaviours, and exploring behavioural economics in consumer demand modelling.

He earned his PhD in transportation engineering from Imperial College London [2023], MSc in Transportation Engineering from The University of Texas at Austin [2018] and BTech in Civil Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay [2016]. He has been awarded Imperial College Global Fellowship [UK, 2022], Turing Scheme award [UK, 2022], Department Dixon Scholarship [UK, 2019-2023], Wellcome Trust Scholarship [UK, 2019-2023], Texas District Student Fellowship [USA, 2017-2018] and Graduate fellowship [USA, 2016-2018].
