Rafael Oehme (M.Sc. Traffic System Management) joined M-Five as a scientific consultant in November 2021. As part of his Bachelor in Business Administration in Transport and Logistics at the Heilbronn University of Applied Sciences, he spent a semester working as an intern for Daimler AG in the department Assembly control and shipping, where he was able to gain insights in supply chain management and first work experience.

While obtaining his Master’s degree in Traffic System Management he was a research assistant at the Institute for Resource Efficiency and Energy Strategies (IREES GmbH) in Karlsruhe. In his master’s thesis, which he wrote in cooperation with Fraunhofer ISI, he investigated the usage of e-scooters in the context of public transport in 2020/2021. During his studies and activities he gained experience in both freight and passenger transport. He was able to acquire further knowledge through various research projects on new mobility services and public transport and dealt with various topics of the energy transition.

Main areas of work:

• Sustainable mobility
• New mobility services
• Freight transport
