Juyeong Choi, Ph.D.

Dr. Juyeong Choi is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, FAMU-FSU College of Engineering. He leads the Sustainable and Resilient Infrastructure Laboratory to address emerging issues facing critical infrastructure systems, which spans from aging infrastructure to climate change, sustainability and post-disaster resiliency. Our team pursues interdisciplinary approaches to these challenges while utilizing a broad range of engineering approaches, tools and methodologies (e.g., operational simulation methods (e.g., system dynamics, agent based modeling, discrete event simulation], optimization methods [e.g., linear programming, genetic algorithm, simulated annealing], statistical analyses). Currently, their team has been focusing on:

  • Infrastructure management and planning in the context of sustainability and disaster risk reduction,
  • Transportation and construction data analytics,
  • Infrastructure and building demolition planning,
  • Infrastructure System-of-Systems, and
  • Capital rehabilitation planning

Dr. Choi received an NSF RAPID grant to look at COVID-19 and its impact on municipal solid waste management facilities. He also co-organized a workshop on Post-Disaster Materials and Environmental Management  sponsored by the Environmental Sustainability program at the National Science Foundation (award #1922539).

Dr. Choi received his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Civil Engineering from Purdue University, and completed a B.S. in Architectural Engineering at the University of Seoul.
