Visiting Scholar from Korea for collaboration

Dr. Hwabong Kim, a visiting scholar, and Mrs. Kim were invited to the College of Visual Arts and Design Annual Scholarship Luncheon on April 12, 2011. Dr. Kim is a professor at Gyeongnam National University of Science and Technology in Korea. He visits the University of North Texas (UNT) to collaborate with Jin Gyu “Phillip” Park, a faculty member in the Department of Design at UNT.

Dr. Kim is also a donor of the Interior Design Visiting Scholar Scholarship. This scholarship is awarded to an ID student who passed the sophomore review with preference to out-of-state students. The recipient of this scholarship is Hannah Kim. The scholarship ceremony was exciting as this is the 51st anniversary for the annual Voertman Student Competition.
