改变交通

Shah joined SEPTA as a data scientist in September 2019 and was instrumental in modernizing 费城’s aging trolley system. His analytics help reduce the transit system’s carbon footprint and ensure it is COVID-19 compliant to protect the health and safety of riders.

在这个角色中, Shah focused on what he calls SEPTA’s ‘holy grail’: developing a highly complex data warehouse to create the most complete picture yet of SEPTA’s ridership, 哪个每年超过2.9亿次. 目标:提升乘客体验, making sure riders get where they have to go quickly, 方便、准时, thus increasing the number of riders and the revenue they bring.

“人们过去常说数据是新的石油. I didn’t really understand what that meant until I started working at Temple.”

让一切变得有意义

Shah notes that his strongest Temple influences were Professor of Marketing and Supply Chain Management Subodha Kumar and Assistant Professor Christopher Monos, whose analysis and design class pulled together all that he had learned from his previous courses, 在优步实习, and a data analysis job with Fox’s Analytics and Accreditation team.

超越师徒关系

沙阿到达神庙后不久, 马修本人, senior associate director of assurance of learning at Fox, hired him to analyze student feedback and scores in order to improve Fox’s classes. Combined with a $5,000 scholarship, the job provided Shah with critically needed funds. Kunkle also offered Shah guidance in adapting to life in a new country.

“He’s more than just a professor, he’s a friend,” said Shah. “He really helped me adjust to the cultural shock of coming to the U.S.”

Now, 他在费城感觉就像在家里一样, and relishes in the city’s history and culture—even the food trucks. 和沙, who once relied on the massive public transit system of his home city—the ninth most populated metropolitan area in the world—to get to college, loves the daily impact he is having on SEPTA’s riders, particularly lower-income workers who have no other way to get to work.

“It’s very rewarding to be able to do something for the greater good,他说.
