Md. Mahmud Hasan Mamun, Ph.D.

Dr. Md. Mahmud Hasan Mamun is an assistant professor of Civil Engineering at the Department of Engineering in the South Carolina State University.

Background

Dr. Md Mahmud Hasan Mamun is an Assistant Professor of Civil Engineering at South Carolina State University, specializing in Transportation Engineering. His expertise lies in cooperative driving automation, transportation network modeling, and traffic simulation. His research focuses on evaluating the mobility and safety impacts of emerging vehicle technologies—particularly autonomous vehicles and connected and automated vehicles—using advanced approaches such as co-simulation and microsimulation.

Before joining SCSU in Fall 2025, Dr. Mamun worked as a Research Associate at Florida International University (2023–2025), where he contributed to projects funded by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). The summary of one of his Master’s research projects at South Carolina State University, Infrastructure and Policy Needs for Personal Electric Mobility Devices in the Connected Vehicle World, was featured in the 2019 UTC Annual Report to the United States Congress, highlighting his field experiment on integrating hoverboards into connected vehicle environments (p. 30, https://www.transportation.gov/utc/2019-utc-annual-report-congress). He also served as a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Information Technology and Sciences in Dhaka, Bangladesh (2015–2018).

Dr. Mamun has received numerous awards and recognitions, including winning the 2023 NOCoE Transportation Technology Tournament, 2023 LifeSavers Scholarship, FIU SGA Graduate Scholarship, South Florida ITE Book Scholarship, FLPRITE Student Shark Tank Competition, as well as honors for Best Conference Paper and Best Poster Presentation at national and international conferences.
