Biography
Jude H. Kurniawan works as a senior research assistant at Engineering Systems and Design. He is completing his Ph.D. in Geography at the University of Waterloo, Canada, and expected to defend his thesis this fall. Jude also holds an Energy Policy Research Fellowship from the Energy Council of Canada. In his doctoral dissertation, he developed a set of globally linked, internally consistent energy scenarios for Canada to evaluate potential opportunities and barriers towards decarbonization. Previously, Jude has worked on various scenario projects such as the future of urban mobility with SUTD and the Future of Work/Technologies with the Millennium Project. Jude’s interest is to develop and improve systematic multi-scale scenario analysis to model complex interactions of human-environment systems for global environmental change research. Jude holds a Bachelor of Science from Northeastern University and a Master of Climate Change from the University of Waterloo.
