| Graduates of the New Materials Engineering department from our school appeal to researchers by doing active expansion abroad. Increasing cases where many students are granted full scholarship and living support, receiving offers from great universities and research agencies are not only showing our excellent international competitive power but also giving encouragement and pride to our undergraduate students. Here are some examples of our students’ great activities: | |
Dr. Bae Chang-duk entered our school in the Materials Science and Engineering Department in 1999, where he finished his doctoral course under Professor Shin’s guidance. Then He served his period of military service in the Department of New Materials Engineering at Yonsei University as a specialist and researcher. He has been undertaking his postdoc course at Hamburg University in Germany after having finished his PhD degree under the research scholarship of Alexander von Humboldt at the Korea Research Foundation. His research interests are three dimensional nanostructure production using atomic layer deposition and energy, spin devices based on this example, related applications including high-density thermoelectric low-cost photovoltaic cells, nano fuel cells and thermo-elements including spin. He has a vast scholarship and award winning history in a variety of contests such as winning the Gold award with his thesis for Samsung Humantec on the drug delivery nanotube process in 2007 during his graduate school period at our university. |

Dr. Na-young Park started new materials engineering study at our school in 2000, completed her PhD process in 2011 under Professor Cha’s guidance, and then was offered a job from Graeme Henkelman, a famous group on energy in the Chemistry Department at the University of Texas in Austin, where she also completed her PhD. She is working on her research process now. Dr. Park’s main field of study is the interpretation of basic properties using the first properties and molecular dynamics technique. The ongoing research at the University of Texas is a cooperative study by AFOSR and the aerospace industry. The research at the University of Texas is regarding the interaction with thermal plasma that is generated in high power spacecraft propulsion systems and material surfaces, the goal of which is finally developing material which has excellent plasma resistance through theory. In addition, she is performing material structures research applied to the anode material of Li-ion batteries, and electronic structure analysis on nanoparticle alloy catalyst development for fuel cells. |

Student Kim Yoon-sung entered the New Materials Engineering Department at our school in 2003, completed his master’s degree under Professor Choi ‘s guidance in 2012, and started doing his PhD at Michigan State University in USA. He juggled performing high-technology research and studying at graduate school as a research assistant under Professor Jeff Sakamoto in the Chemical & Materials Department, where he received full support for tuition and living expenses. The project he will be in charge of during his PhD course is one that is processed by JPL NASA Laboratory USA and General Motors, regarding the development/ application of thermoelectric material insulation for cars using aerosol and ceramic electrolyte for secondary batteries. He has won many prizes such as receiving a Bronze prize in the Samsung Electronics Inside Edge academic paper contest. |
