College of Engineering, Kongju National University establish joint Ph.D. program

Summer 2026

The agreement is the culmination of several years of relationship-building beginning in 2021 when Dongkyoung Lee, professor of mechanical and automotive engineering at KNU, contacted Jae Sung Park, Richard L. McNeel Associate Professor of Mechanical and Materials Engineering at Nebraska. KNU had recently received funding through South Korea's prestigious Brain Korea 21 initiative for its Graduate Program for Eco-Friendly Future Automotive Technology and was seeking an international partner to strengthen its research and graduate education efforts.
