* Creative Engineering Design (Course No. 400.018.)
The class offers opportunity for freshmen to perform a practical and interesting engineering design project under restrictions of material, tools and time. The main project requests students to design and fabricate a mechanical device with provided materials and tools. Students demonstrate their mechanical devices on 12th week and join the main project competition on 13th week.
* The Late Professor CHU Chong Nam (1956-2019)
Professor Chu Chong Nam earned his B.S. in Mechanics from Seoul National University. He continued his study at MIT where he received the master's and doctoral degree in Mechanics. He was appointed as assistant professor at Purdue University and promoted to associate professor. He joined Seoul National University faculty in 1992 and served as professor in mechanics until his sudden death in 2019.
