Prof. Mary Kathryn Thompson, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology

Mary Kathryn Thompson is an Associate Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST). She is engaged in design

research at the boundary, both within engineering and beyond, and is actively working on the development

and application of formal design theories to civil, environmental, and urban engineering. She is also interested in non-traditional applications of the finite element method, especially for surface phenomena such

as fluid sealing, thermal and electrical contact resistance, and friction and wear. Thompson is the Director of the KAIST Freshman Design Program, which earned her both the KAIST Grand Prize for Creative

Teaching and the Republic of Korea Ministry of Education, Science and Technology Award for Innovation

in Engineering Education in 2009. She also received the Grand Prize at the 2009 International Conference

on Axiomatic Design Theory for her paper on the synthesis of formal design theories for traffic intersections. Thompson earned her B.S. (2002), M.S. (2004), and Ph.D. (2007) from the Massachusetts Institute

of Technology, Department of Mechanical Engineering.

Mr. Beunguk Ahn, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology

Beunguk Ahn is an undergraduate student in the Department of Computer Science at the Korea Advanced

Institute of Science and Technology. He is engaged in computer science research related to web content

analysis, databases, and data mining. He is also interested in software engineering that integrates values

from the humanities and social sciences with computer science. From 2008 to 2011, Ahn served as a

teaching assistant and consultant for the KAIST Freshman Design Course. During this time, he helped

to set up and run the...
