Professorships at MIT

A few weeks ago, I was interviewed by MIT Spectrum about my current role as Faculty Director of the MIT Center For Real Estate and also as a leader of the MIT Sustainable Urbanization Lab. This was quite an opportunity to share my vision and appreciate all the hard work that has been done at MIT to address global challenges, mainly fast urbanization and climate change.

MIT is not only an environment where we can all develop ourselves and do research on our fields but also a place that enables collaboration across multiple disciplines. That is unique in a research environment. MIT is widely known for its innovative reputation through its top-notch engineers. Over the past few decades, it has also shown an excellent research capacity in economics, architecture, and many other fields.
