On February 19th, Professors Jing Zhao and Wenzhe Sun from the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology (USST) visited the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at KAIST to discuss research collaboration opportunities with Prof. Yeo, Hwasoo and his research team.
 

During the seminar held that morning, discussions were held regarding ways to enhance academic and research exchanges between KAIST and USST. 
 

Key topics included: ▲ the operation of a Dual Degree program, ▲ research exchange for graduate students and postdoctoral researchers, and ▲ the establishment of Collaboration Lectures. Notably, Collaboration Lectures will be conducted jointly by faculty members from both institutions, utilizing both online and offline formats.

Additionally, discussions took place on conducting joint research through the sharing of Electric Vehicle (EV) data. Through this collaboration, both institutions plan to jointly conduct research on traffic data analysis and applications based on electric vehicles, and to present their research outcomes together in the future.

It is anticipated that this visit will further strengthen research collaboration between KAIST and USST, and that sustained exchanges will contribute to the enhancement of the global research network.
