Biyografi
Dr. Tokdemir gained his undergraduate degree from the Civil Engineering Department of Middle East Technical University and his M.Sc. and Ph.D. from the Civil Engineering Department of Illinois Institute of Technology (Chicago). After working as a Research Assistant at the Illinois Institute of Technology, Dr. Tokdemir has taught various courses at prestigious universities such as “Illinois Institute of Technology,” “City College of New York,” “New York University,” “Qatar University” and “Istanbul Technical University” as an Adjunct Professor between 2004 and 2016.
He started his professional career as a Project Manager for Rise Group in Chicago, working on capstone projects focusing on Data Management. He later joined McDonough Associates (Chicago) as a Partner and Structural Engineer. After his tenure at McDonough Associates, he joined Turner, NY, for a year and moved to Qatar to work for Qatar Project Management (QPM). In Qatar, he helped the establishment of the newly founded QPM, from Project Management practices to BIM (Building Information Modelling). He later worked for Ronesans Holding in Istanbul (the largest constructor in the region) as the director of the Project Management Office.
In 2017 he decided to work as a full-time professor, recently working at Istanbul Technical University as an Associate Professor. He focuses on the Digital Transformation of the construction industry; he manages the AI research group in construction management. He has several research articles on AI applications. He believes in the Lean Management philosophy and applies it to all his life and work practices. Recently, he has been serving as a member of the Digital Twins for Complex Infrastructures and Urban Ecosystems (DIGITWIN4CIUE) Technical Committee.
