Curriculum Vitae of Theodore Tsekeris (April 2012) Dr. Theodore Tsekeris is a Research Fellow in Transport Economics at the Centre of Planning and Economic Research (KEPE), Athens, Greece. He has held academic research positions at the University of California at Berkeley and École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland. He has taught at Panteion University of Athens and University of Thessaly. He studied Civil Engineering, Transportation Science and Planning at the City University London (B.Eng.), Imperial College and University College London (M.Sc.) and National Technical University of Athens (Ph.D.). He has extensively published in the fields of transport planning, management, regional science and urban economics. His current research interests include the development of spatio-economic models to investigate the processes of regional investment growth, industrial localization and regional specialization.
