- The UST-KIMM School hosted the very first 2022 UST-KIMM School Academic Conference on November 23 -


The Korea Institute of Machinery and Materials (KIMM) has hosted the very first UST-KIMM School  Academic Conference on November 23, 2022 at the KIMM Main Building located in Daejeon. University of Science and Technology (UST) is a graduate university operated under the Ministry of Science and ICT, and was co-founded in 2003 by the 32 Government-funded Research Institutes (“GRIs”) which are UST’s campuses. UST-KIMM School, as one of the 32 GRI  campuses of UST, currently hosts about 50 UST students to provide them with not only the top-level research mentors, but also provide excellent on-site research environments for students to engage in creative research and development.



The 2022 UST-KIMM School Academic Conference was held to provide the opportunity to expand the knowledge on the recent research trends as well as to expand communications between the faculty and students. The event began with the brief remarks from Dr. Sang Jin Park, the President of KIMM, and Dr. Young-Hoon Song, the Campus Representative Professor.  President Park had stated at his remark that, "during the graduate studies, it is often the case that students are only focusing on their major-related research topics. Through this Conference and the presentations, we hope that the students can build general understanding on the different sectors of mechanical engineering, learning from each others' presentations."


  

  


Afterwards, total of 21 UST students at the UST-KIMM School each presented their research activities at the poster session and oral presentation session. Through the votes of the attending faculty and students, six students were awarded with the best poster and oral presentation awards.


The 2022 UST-KIMM School Academic Conference was especially meaningful for the students since it was organized by the Student Council at KIMM School. According to the comment from a participating student, the Academic Conference was a fruitful experience for the students, where one could gather information and insights on various sectors of the mechanical engineering.
