GSR Opening-Berkeley

A GSR is sought to mainly perform desk-top literature reviews on a project focused on abrupt shifts in land-use planning and urban design (e.g., freeway removals; new towns/in town; car-free districts; smart parking) and their impacts on travel behavior as well as metrics tied to sustainability, livability, and economic prosperity. The GSR will be asked to cull the literature and write brief summaries – on theories, empirical investigations, and case studies – in these areas. The terms of employment – e.g., hours per week; length of project, etc. – are negotiable. If you are interested, please email Professor Robert Cervero (robertc@berkeley.edu) and include a 1 page bio on yourself.
