Teaching

I am currently teaching Transport Networks at the School of Civil Engineering, University of Sydney.

In the past, I lectured the following courses:

  • Transport Systems (CIVL2700/9700) as the main teacher at the University of Sydney (2024).
  • Transport Networks as the main teacher at the University of Sydney (2023 – 2025).
  • Probabilities and statistics, as the main teacher, at Universidad Federico Santa María, Santiago, Chile, during 2015-2018. Here you can find past tests and exams (in Spanish).
  • Practical workshop “Design of a public transport network in Santiago, Chile”, in collaboration with Prof. Sergio Jara-Díaz, at Universidad de Chile, during 2017-2019.

During my undergraduate studies at Universidad de Chile, I was an assistant teacher (tutor) in the following courses: Introduction to algebra, Linear algebra, Probabilities, Game theory, Calculus in several variables, Advanced calculus and applications, Analysis, Measure theory, Markov processes, and Combinatorial Optimization.

I am currently supervising the M.Sc. or undergraduate capstones/theses of:

  • Alexandra Waters (University of Sydney), who is developing a theoretical analysis on the optimal positioning of ride-hailing drivers.
  • Ahaan Gautam (University of Sydney), who is developing simulations to assess the integration of flexible and conventional buses in public transport.

I have supervised (or co-supervised) the capstones/theses of:

  • Leanna Tan (University of Sydney, finished 2025), entitled: “The impact of socio-economic inequality in Australia on ride-hailing trips”.
  • Xiang Wang (University of Sydney, finished 2025), entitled: “Valuation of Reliability in On-demand Ridesharing Systems Based on a Stated Preference Survey of University Students in Sydney”.
  • Francisco Vilches (U. de Chile, graduated 2025), entitled: “Shared mobility systems with hierarchical pickup and dropoff points”.
  • Minjun Song (University of Sydney, finished 2024), entitled: “Analysing the effects of food delivery systems on food delivery worker’s behaviour to improve safety”.
  • Albert Xu (University of Sydney, finished 2024), entitled: “Implementation of Ridesharing Problem with PUDO location selection”.
  • Marc Awad, Bob Sheng (University of Sydney, finished 2024), entitled: “Analysis of Commuter Mode Choice with and without Real-Time Park and Ride Information”.
  • Raisa Raihan (University of Sydney, finished 2024), entitled: “The Impact of Real-Time Information on Route Choice in Public Transport”.
  • Tajwar Selim (University of Sydney, finished 2024), entitled: “Unveiling Origin-Destination Dynamics: Deterministic and Stochastic Decomposition via eRPCA”.
