Dr. Kwon Jungmin and Dr. Ahn Sora
Dr. Kwon Jungmin, an alumnus, has been appointed as an assistant professor (tenure-track) in the Department of Electrical & Electronics Engineering, IT College, at Kangwon National University. Dr. Kwon graduated from Ewha Womans University’s Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering in 2015 and completed the master’s (class of ‘17) and doctoral (class of ‘24) programs led by Professor Park Hyung-gon.
Dr. Kwon was selected for the 2025 Sejong Science Fellowship under the Basic Research Program supported by the Ministry of Science and ICT and the National Research Foundation of Korea, and during her time at Ewha she conducted postdoctoral research on“the development of AI-based control technology for xHaul networks aiming at intelligent design of 6G Open RAN, with verification through virtual simulation.” She has established excellent research achievements by solving various problems across communication networks using mathematical modeling, AI-based data analysis, and system design. As of this semester, she is working as assistant professor in the Department of Electrical & Electronics Engineering at Kangwon National University.
Dr. Ahn Sora, an alumna as well, has been appointed as assistant professor (tenure-track) in the School of Artificial Intelligence Convergence, Hallym University. Dr. Ahn graduated from the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering at Ewha Womans University in 2010 and completed the combined master’s-ph.D. program (class of ‘17) led by Professor Lee SeungJun. She worked as a postdoctoral researcher at INSERM (Institut de Neurosciences des Systèmes), Aix-Marseille University in France, and after returning to Korea held positions as Research Professor in the Departments of Speech-Language Pathology and Electronic & Electrical Engineering at Ewha.
Dr. Ahn has been conducting clinical translational research to support decision-making in diagnosis and treatment of brain diseases based on personalized brain digital twin technology. She is currently leading research supported by the National Research Foundation in the sciences and engineering (Ministry of Education, Creative Challenge Program, Principal Investigator, ‘23-‘26) and the Bio & Medical Technology Development Program (Ministry of Science and ICT, Neuroscience Convergence, sub-project leader, ‘24-‘28), among others. Starting this semester, she will work as assistant professor in the School of AI Convergence at Hallym University.
The Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering at Ewha Womans University has provided graduate students with world-class research opportunities through its state-of-the-art laboratories and projects funded by the nation. Students have balanced mastery of core theoretical foundations with applied and interdisciplinary education, participated in international collaborative research and conference presentations, built global academic networks, and developed their research competitiveness, especially as leading women in the STEM fields.
