ICT recently had to say goodbye and good luck to Jonguen Baek, who moved back to Korea. He has taken a position as Research Professor at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Sejong University.
Jonguen Baek
Jonguen Baek earned his Ph.D. in Transportation Engineering and was advised by Dr. Al-Qadi. He had been serving as a post-doc researcher at ICT before obtaining his new position, where he will be closer to his family.
Baek also served as a Graduate Research Assistant on two ICT projects including “Thin Quiet Long-Lasting High Friction Surface Layer” and “Cost-Effectiveness and Performance of Overlay Systems in Illinois.”
Baek was a constant fixture at ATREL and will be greatly missed. Everyone at ATREL has been impressed by his work ethic, and he is a genuinely friendly person who cares about others. ICT staff, students, and faculty honored Baek at a recent lunch.
