Biography
Professor Soopramanien Didier Gerard Rodney completed his Ph.D. at Lancaster University in the UK and was offered the position of assistant professor upon graduation in 2002.

He has also worked at Loughborough University (in the UK) as a Reader in Marketing.
He has worked twice in China at two different institutions, namely Beijing Foreign Studies University and, more recently, at Xi’an Jiaotong Liverpool University.
He does research in the area of marketing with a focus on what facilitates and constrains consumers to change their behavior with a focus on transport mode choice and sustainability practices. His research has been published in peer-reviewed journals such as Transportation Research A, Journal of Business Research and Technology Forecasting and Social Change, European Journal of Operational Research and Applied Economics. He regularly reviews for academic journals in my area of research and he has also edited special issues more recently in the Journal of Consumer Behaviour.
