Kyung Hee Ranks 23rd Overall in the World and 2nd Among Global Private Universities in THE Impact Rankings 2024
2024-06-20 Academic
The THE Impact Rankings, announced by the British publication Times Higher Education, evaluate universities’ contributions to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These rankings serve as a vital indicator of a university’s efforts towards creating a sustainable future for humanity and civilization. This year, Kyung Hee excelled globally in several key areas: 4th for SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), 13th for SDG 1 (No Poverty), 19th for SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure), 26th for SDG 2 (Zero Hunger), and 28th for SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities). The University’s outstanding performance, ranking within the top 50 worldwide for these five goals, highlights the significant contributions Kyung Hee has been making towards these important objectives.Read More -
Development of Stable and Highly Efficient Thermoelectric Materials to Advance Carbon Neutrality
2024-06-17 Research
The thermoelectric effect refers to the phenomenon in which heat and electricity are converted to each other. Thermoelectric materials are eco-friendly energy conversion materials that convert heat into electricity and use it for power generation or use electricity to generate temperature differences to cool the surroundings. As of late, the performance index of thermoelectric materials has increased significantly, resulting in the launch of refrigerators incorporating thermoelectric effects. However, the problem of thermal instability of the material operating at high temperatures still remains to be resolved.Read More -
Constructing and Analyzing Medical Big Data to Facilitate Research on “Chronic COVID-19 Syndrome”
2024-06-17 Research
The chronic COVID-19 syndrome refers to symptoms persisting longer than four weeks after the initial COVID-19 infection. The exact cause and treatment of the symptoms have not yet been identified. In their initial study, the joint research team led by Professors Yon and Lee suggested that the possibility of developing autoimmune inflammatory rheumatic disease after COVID-19 infection. The research results were published in March 2024 in the online edition of Annals of Internal Medicine under the title, “Long-Term Autoimmune Inflammatory Rheumatic Outcomes of COVID-19: A Binational Cohort Study.”Read More -
Kyung Hee Launches New Program to Train Future Leaders of Quantum Information Technology
2024-06-10 Academic
Quantum information technology continues to advance and shows promise to revolutionize various industries, leading to intensified competition among countries over leadership in this field. Kyung Hee University has recognized the growing importance of nurturing professionals in quantum technology and responded by launching a new major aimed at preparing students to become leaders in the quantum tech race. “Interest in quantum information has skyrocketed, especially following recent Nobel Prize wins in the field,” said Professor Kwang Jo Lee of the Department of Applied Physics. “Our Student Government also highlighted the demand for expertise in this area. Establishing this convergence major was a natural response to these recent trends.”Read More -
New 4D Security Technology to Prevent IoT Device Hacking
2024-06-10 Research
Hackers are increasingly targeting home webcams and smart home devices, leading to privacy breaches and demands for ransom. Thus next-generation security systems for internet of things (IoT) devices are needed more than ever. The 4D PUF developed by Professor Park’s research team introduces temporal variation elements into traditional PUF technology, creating an innovative solution designed to effectively combat hacking threats. PUFs are hardware-based security systems that use the inherent random physical characteristics of the hardware to create a unique, unclonable “digital fingerprint.” These random characteristics assign a unique ID and encryption key to each device. The research team achieved a four-dimensional structure by growing phosphorescentRead More
