This project, conducted in partnership with the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT), focuses on improving roadway safety for drivers across Arizona. The primary goal is to develop and evaluate innovative training programs that utilize a high-fidelity driving simulator to enhance the driving skills, hazard recognition, and decision-making abilities of inexperienced drivers. These simulator-based training modules will be designed to replicate real-world driving environments and challenging scenarios commonly encountered on Arizona roadways. The selected student will contribute to the development of different driving scenarios within the simulator. Applicants should have familiarity with programming and an interest in simulation, human factors, and transportation safety research. The student will work closely with the research team to design, implement, and test interactive training modules that promote safer driving behaviors and reduce crash risks among inexperienced drivers. This is a volunteer position.
Proficiency in programming, data analysis, human subject study, and data collection
