Completed PhD Preliminary Exam and Advanced to Candidacy

I recently completed my PhD preliminary exam and successfully presented my research proposal. With this, I have advanced to PhD candidacy in Civil Engineering at the University of Wyoming.

My research focuses on analyzing human attention and cognitive workload during construction hazard evaluation. In simple terms, I study how people look at work situations, how they decide whether something is safe or unsafe, and how mental workload affects those decisions.

The goal of this work is to better understand where people may miss hazards or take longer to recognize risks, and how we can improve safety in construction environments.

This was an important step in my PhD journey, and I am grateful to my advisor and committee members for their support and guidance.

I am looking forward to continuing this research in the next phase.
