Dr. Jintai Wang is an assistant professor of civil engineering at ˿Ƶ Tech. He received his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in civil engineering from Tongji University and a Ph.D. in Geotechnical Engineering from Pennsylvania State University. Dr. Wang has three years of industry experience in geotechnical design, construction, instrumentation, and data management with Geosyntec Consultants. He is excited to bring the real-world applications on large and complex civil infrastructures such as foundations, dams, landfills, coal ash impoundments and pipelines into his classroom for undergraduate and graduate courses and laboratories. Dr. Wang is a registered Professional Engineer in the states of California and Texas. Dr. Wang research interests include liquefaction evaluation, geotechnical instrumentation, solid waste engineering and non-textbook soil. He currently serves on three ASCE technical committees: Frozen Ground, Earthquake Engineering and Soil Dynamics, and Embankments Dams and Slopes.
