Dr Taru Jain | Department of Transport and Planning
Dr Taru Jain is an award-winning transport researcher with over 17 years of experience in academia, government and industry. Taru started her career in the UK as a transport consultant before moving to New Delhi to work as an assistant Professor of Transport Planning. She has also consulted internationally working in UAE, China and USA. Taru's quest for adventure brought her to Australia in 2016 for a PhD in Shared Mobility at Monash University. For her PhD research Taru was chosen as the Victorian Researcher of the Year 2019 by AECURN and Best Doctoral Paper at the 98th Transportation Research Board Meeting in Washington DC. Taru's research has been cited widely in publications such as Wall Street Journal, and some of her publications feature as the most downloaded papers in the world. Taru currently works for the Department of Transport and Planning as Manager of Research. Her role bridges the gaps between government and research, ensuring the research happening in universities is geared to the challenges faced by the government.
