BRIEF BIO
Professor Luh-Maan Chang got his BS degree from Department of Civil Engineering, National Cheng Kung University in 1971. In 1974-77, Professor Chang worked as a project engineer for Industry Technology Research Institute (ITRI) at Hsin-Chu, the silicon valley of Taiwan where he helped design and build the 1st Integrated Circuit Demonstration Plant of Taiwan.
After getting his MS and PhD degrees from the University of Texas at Austin, he taught in the School of Building Construction, University of Florida from 1983 to 1985.From 1986 to 2009, Professor Chang taught in the School of Civil Engineering, Purdue University. After he took early retirement from Purdue, he continued teaching in the Civil Engineering Department of National Taiwan University till 2016.
Presently, he is a full-time researcher of NTU Climate Change and Sustainability Research Center , and an adjunct professor and the director of High Tech Facility Research Center of NTU Civil Engineering Department. His current research interests are in Mitigation of Vibration(Micro-vibration & Electromagnetic Interference) & Contamination Control for below 2nm Semiconductor Fabrication (Fab), 4D Construction Project Scheduling through Fab/Facility Information Modeling (FIM), and Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Improving Construction Productivity.
