During the latter half of the ExCEEd Teaching Workshop, participants apply what they have learned by preparing and teaching three classes in a small-group setting. This collaborative “learn by doing” format ensures that participants will make substantive improvements in their teaching skills by the end of the course.

Masoud’s research interests are centered around applications of operations research in transportation, with a focus on surface transportation. Courses she offers include CEE 554: Data Mining in Transportation and CEE 557: Large-scale Transportation Systems Optimization.
