Clint Andrews is Director of the Rutgers Green Building Center, and a Professor and Associate Dean for Research at the Bloustein School. He teaches public informatics and environmental planning. Andrews performs research on how people use the built environment and the implications for resilience, sustainability, health, and productivity. His books include Humble Analysis: The Practice of Joint fact-Finding, Regulating Regional Power Systems, and Industrial Ecology and Global Change.

He is co-editor of the Journal of Planning Education and Research. He is a member of the American Institute of Certified Planners, a licensed Professional Engineer, a Fellow of AAAS, a CIC ALP BTAA Fellow, president-elect of the IEEE Society on Social Implications of Technology, and an avid experimenter with new methods for collecting field data in urban settings.

His research actively uses new forms of data that have enabled new research questions to be asked about the strategic and operational aspects in his areas of interest. We live in a rapidly sensorized world. For example, in the paper titled “Summertime thermal conditions and senior resident behaviors in public housing: A case study in Elizabeth, NJ, USA”, indoor sensors measuring thermal conditions (temperature, humidity) and occupant behaviors (occupant presence, window opening and air-conditioner (A/C) use) were used to study heat vulnerability in senior citizens living in apartments.

Often it is essential to do in-depth modeling and simulations of different scenarios to tease out behavioral or policy implications – Prof. Andrew’s analysis of how coastal real estate markets respond to flood events using an integrated agent‐based and hedonic pricing modeling system is an example.

Working with then-PhD student Jonathan Stiles, Prof. Andrews developed a typology of smart work spaces that highlights issues of power and control, which extend across both physical and virtual space and have profound implications for employee autonomy.
