Dr Shiaw Yin Yong

Shiaw Yin is an Assistant Professor in the department of Mathematical Sciences at Universiti Brunei Darussalam. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Mathematics from the same university in 2002, followed by a MSc in Operations Research, and a PhD in Civil and Environmental Engineeringfrom the University of Southampton, UK. Her research focuses on operations research and intelligent traffic systems, with a particular emphasis on improving road safety and driver behaviour. She collaborates with researchers from various disciplines to analyse problems and implement interventions at specific road junctions in Brunei. Shiaw Yin led the Traffic Light Dimming Project sponsored by Radix Traffic Limited, UK in 2012 and has been a Research Associate at CfTR since 2019. She currently teaches undergraduate modules in operations research at Universiti Brunei Darussalam.
