Accomplishments

  • Received an Excellence prize from the '1st GUGC Young Scientist Challenge' with Ghent University Global Campus Admissions Dean's Award, Administration Dean's Award and the reward of 200,000 KRW. Presented a speech about a personal passion project in terms of 'biomimicry in airplanes'. Using the structural characteristics of birds in an aircraft intrigued the candidate as it uses the power of evolution for efficiency. Combining biology and physics to produce efficient aerodynamics to reduce fuel consumption has piqued the candidate's interest in integrating different fields for innovative application
  • Passed the final for the '11th SAMSUNG engineering's energy and environment exploration contest' and received an award for the '5th HOBY idea competition for science/engineering for the environment' with a society project of manufacturing edible beeswax films for food products to lengthen the shelf life of food products and reduce food/plastic waste.
