Ulises Techera

Ulises Techera is an Associate Teaching Professor at the Colorado Mesa University – University of Colorado Boulder Partnership. His research focuses on construction safety, particularly how human factors like fatigue affect safety and productivity in hazardous sectors such as electrical transmission, oil/gas, and pipeline construction. He is an active contributor to the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), currently serving as President of the ASCE Western Slope Colorado Branch.

Education:

• PhD in Civil Engineering, University of Colorado Boulder (2017)
• MS in Civil Engineering, University of Colorado Boulder (2017)
• BS-MS Equivalent in Civil Engineering, Polytechnic University of Catalonia (2014)

Research Interests: Techera explores fatigue management strategies, human error prevention, and safety climate dynamics in construction. His work bridges empirical field studies with meta-analytic reviews to address systemic risks. Notable contributions include frameworks for measuring fatigue using biometric data and improving safety protocols in high-risk environments.

Publications highlight trends in fatigue assessment methodologies, hazard recognition, and safety performance metrics, reflecting a focus on actionable solutions for industry challenges. No scientific awards are explicitly listed, though his consulting and advisory roles underscore professional recognition. Techera’s educational and advisory efforts emphasize translating research into practical applications for safer construction practices.
