A1. __ Hello. I am Lee Hyeon-jae who earned a Ph.D. from UNIST in February. I spent most of my 20s studying at UNIST for 10 years after gaining undergraduate admission. For my time there, I will always be grateful to UNIST for providing a lot of opportunities to encounter various research fields and get help from experts.

A2. __ First of all, I would like to thank everyone for believing in me despite my shortcomings and selecting me for the Yebong Award and former President Moo je Cho for awarding me a development fund donation. More so than my personal achievements, I think this award was mainly possible through the efforts and support of all the labs members I work with. To meet the expectations of all of my colleagues who believed in and supported me and everyone who selected me for this award, I will keep striving to be a good researcher.

A3. __ After graduation, as a researcher, I will devote myself to efforts for more professional and creative research. Currently, I am a Ph.D researcher at the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST), and I am studying machine learning in material science, which was always an interest of mine during my Ph.D coursework but was not able to study for realistic reasons. I would like to further pursue deeper research in this field, while also playing the role of a good mentor for students.

A4. __ For personal dreams and goals, make the most of your time. Speaking from my short-lived experience, begin by setting one’s goals first, and then gain real-world experience other than academic experience serves as a great asset. Do not be afraid of the challenges and failures to follow, but rather capitalize on it as a learning opportunity to continue to develop and take on challenges. I hope all of you will be able to achieve your dreams and goals.

A1. __ Hello! I am Ryu Hyeon-u, who graduated from admissions class No. 17 in the Mechanical Engineering Department in August 22. It took me longer than expected to graduate, including one year of leave of absence. I am now studying for my master's degree in mechanical engineering at KAIST.

A2. __ First of all, thank you for the opportunity to win the LS Group Chairman Award at the commencement ceremony! Despite the long and hard hours devoted to my academics, after passing exams, I am left with only fond memories. I would like to express my gratitude to the professors who kindly shared their experience and advice in personal counseling sessions and taught their subjects with passion during undergraduate coursework.

A3. __ I enrolled in graduate school in August last year and now I am in my sophomore semester. Although I am in mechanical engineering, I want to pursue research that can help people enduring barriers to mobility by researching and simulating the movement of human muscles and skeletons. In the future, I hope that my research will help people and society to grow steadily. In addition, no matter how busy I am, I will continue to do volunteer service, which I have done since middle school until university.

A4. __ I would like to advise others to enjoy what is only possible to do when enrolled in college. It's not just about socializing and having fun, but instead I would like to have a range of experiences and tackle challenges, and grow on my own, while pondering about a career path. I would like to experience and enjoy the various mentoring, volunteer and club activities during school!

A1. __ Hello, I am Kim Sang-min, a graduate of electrical and electronic engineering. I enrolled in 2016 and graduated from the undergraduate program in August 2022. Currently, I am working with domestic automakers.

A2. __ I was stunned to hear the new about getting the LS Group Chairman Award. Given that the many classmates at UNIST who lead the pack in their field of study, I think I was chosen for this award to motivate me to work even harder. I will also devote myself to becoming an engineer who contributes to human life in my position.

A3. __ I am currently working on a process automation design and smart factory at Kia. So in the short term, after developing fully as an engineer, I would like to be tasked with presenting the business strategy of the warrior and the direction of the mobility industry in the mid- to long -term.

A4. __ I have learned a lot of things at UNIST over my seven years of academics from undergraduate admission to graduation. I hope the enrolled students will also gain from many different experiences for the rest of the year and beyond, and achieve their goals.
