Dr. J.M. (Jaap) Vleugel

Profile

Education and non-TUD years
Jaap studied general economics (macro- and micro-economics) and business IT at the Faculty of Economics and Business Sciences of the Free University in Amsterdam. His (Drs.) thesis dealt with road pricing. He was invited as junior researcher at the Economic and Social Institute (ESI)/Dpt. of Spatial Economics while working on his internship project for the OECD. He mastered project management in many externally financed spatial- & transport(-economic) projects.

Then he took a short break from academics: A logistic simulation software start-up, transport- (freight) and environmental consultancy (nature finance, impact studies).

PhD thesis
Jaap started his PhD project (Transport and Land-use scenarios, 2000), not related with his full-time jobs, just before he left Free University and continued as an external PhD candidate, which was a pleasant distraction.

The Delft research experience (2001-2011)
He started at TU Delft's (former) OTB Research Institute in the Freight Transport section. He was project leader in co-financed projects in railways and city logistics. It was an enriching and stimulating experience to work in a dedicated research environment. Business-like, short lines, hence fast decision-making and very professionally managed.

The Delft education experience (2011-202x)
Jaap gradually became involved in education. His extensive research and management experience enable him to learn students to successfully manage their thesis and design projects. These projects are unique in the sense that they fulfill scientific requirements and the needs of their commissioners.

Range

Team player & one-man army, multi-lingual. As a proponent of interdisciplinary work, I am against extreme specialisation. It leads to silos, castles, islands and partial 'solutions'. A professional should master at least a few fields at a good level. This is what I call a multi-specialist.
We live in a world without convincing leadership in many areas. This magnifies the many uncertainties we already experience. In such a climate, it is good to know that there are still people around who have the brains, range, perseverance and integrity to help their customers (students, commissioners) not 'just' achieve their initial goals, but also change their mindset structurally, to become more self-confident and mature. Work with me and learn to bypass the usual 'not possible'. Send an invite to explore mutual interests. Stay healthy!
