Tra Vua is working on her Ph.D. in Transportation Planning and Engineering at Polytechnic Institute of New York University. She is working under Professors Roess and Prassas on the Dynamic Rate Structure of Mileage-based User Charge (or the Vehicle Miles Traveled Tax). She became interested in this topic after a trip back to Vietnam in 2008, where she found that the increase in vehicles since her last time there seven years earlier had grown “at a dizzying pace” and the fumes, noise, congestion, and accidents levels were out of control. She hopes that her research will help bring order to transportation in Vietnam.
