Edward McCormack retires after decades of service to CEE

Research Associate Professor Edward McCormack retired this winter after a career spanning more than 35 years at the UW.

McCormack served as director of the Master of Sustainable Transportation program and built a research portfolio focused on using technology to improve freight mobility. His work ranged from developing truck performance measures for WSDOT and the Norwegian Public Roads Administration to testing unpiloted aircraft for avalanche monitoring and evaluating freight technology for the U.S. Department of Transportation. He also contributed to three National Academy of Engineering projects on truck bottlenecks, smart growth and freight data. McCormack will remain connected to the department in an emeritus role.
