[Student Reporter] FIT Korea to Join Chiba University for Wearable Design Workshop [Wearable Design Workshop Orientation] International connections are being fostered this semester for Fashion Business Management students at SUNY Korea, who are set to take part in an international workshop at Chiba University’s Design Research Institute in Sumida, Tokyo, from April 22nd to 26th. This collaboration aims to mix fashion with the digital world, focusing on sustainable pathways to communicative, wearable technology. Dubbed “Wearable Design for Social/Emotional Communication,” students are being brought together to create wearable fashion prototypes that merge technology such as sensors and LED lights to explore new forms of communication. FIT students will conduct research over a span of five days in Tokyo, expanding their knowledge concerning communication and sustainability via technology through various activities: Day 1: Orientation and campus tour. Day 2: Special Lectures from FIT Korea, discussions on human interaction, and fieldwork. Day 3: Curating ideas, business model introduction, and digital prototyping. Day 4: Creation of prototypes, and testing. Day 5: Final presentations and feedback from faculty and experts. This collaboration between FIT SUNY Korea and Chiba University aims to prepare students for the cross-cultural and interdisciplinary exchanges they’ll encounter in their professional lives, while also equipping them to meet the rapidly changing demands of the fashion industry—as fabric and design are further explored through a technological and global lens. As this research project continues, watch how interdisciplinary exchanges will shape innovation, fashion, and design of the future.

[Student Reporter] Alumni Career Talk Sparks Inspiration at SUNY Korea On April 12, 2025, SUNY Korea hosted the Spring Alumni Career Talk and welcomed back its alumni to share their professional journeys and insights with the current students. The event featured graduates from various majors – including Computer Science and Technology and Society from Stony Brook University, Korea, and Fashion Business Management from Fashion Institute of Technology, Korea. The session provided a platform for alumni to reflect on their academic experiences, career paths, and the lessons they’ve learned along the way. Among the presenters was Hawon Park, Computer Science graduate, a researcher who spoke about his days at SUNY Korea, his internships with V-ethos and Zero Class, and how those opportunities helped shape his career. Jinsil Lee, Fashion Business Management graduate, shared her story as the CEO of Weekendglow. After leaving a Korean university at a young age to gain work experience, she spent years in the retail industry as an employee and store manager. At the age of 26, she decided to pursue higher education in the U.S., ultimately enrolling in the FIT program at SUNY Korea. She highlighted that learning has no age limit, and credited her time at FIT for helping her find business partners. During each session, all the alumni mentioned a common theme: make the most of your university life. They advised students to explore their interests, seek out internships, and utilize resources like the Career Development Center. They stressed that what students learn in college often plays a vital role in shaping their professional and personal identities, particularly when preparing resumes, interviews, and future career decisions. The Spring 2025 Alumni Career Talk served as a bridge to connect SUNY Korea alumni and current students. Through candid stories and advice, the alumni were able to inspire the current students to reflect on their future goals. Written by Student Reporter, Sehyun Cho (Sehyun.Cho@stonybrook.edu)

SUNY Korea CPA Study Group Visits Deloitte Korea Headquarters On April 11, 2025, the Business Management Department’s CPA Study Group, accompanied by accounting professors, participated in a special field trip to Deloitte Korea’s headquarters, located in the IFC building in Yeouido, Seoul. The visit began with a warm welcome from Deloitte Korea’s CEO, Mr. Jong-sung Hong, who took the time to personally greet the delegation. His presence made a significant impression on the students, emphasizing Deloitte's commitment to talent development and engagement with the next generation of professionals. During the visit, participants were given an in-depth overview of Deloitte’s corporate vision, the qualities the firm seeks in future talent, and insights into its diverse business areas, including future-focused initiatives and innovative service lines. Students also had the unique opportunity to tour the office space, gaining a firsthand look at the professional environment of one of the Big Four accounting firms. This experience gave CPA students a clearer understanding of real-world expectations in the accounting industry and helped them visualize potential career paths. It also reinforced the importance of leadership, adaptability, and continuous learning in the evolving landscape of finance in the global world.

[Student Reporter] Distinguished Seminar: Dr. Jaewan Kim Explores the Frontiers of Quantum Science at SUNY Korea On March 26, 2025, SUNY Korea had the privilege of hosting Dr. Jaewan Kim, a distinguished professor at Yonsei University and the Director of the Institute of Quantum Information Technology. Held in Room 105 of Academic Building C, the seminar presented a unique opportunity for students and faculty to dive into the evolving world of quantum mechanics and quantum information science. The event began with light refreshments and an introduction to Dr. Kim, whose academic background spans decades of pioneering work in quantum theory. To break the ice and immediately capture the audience’s curiosity, Dr. Kim engaged two student volunteers in a clever number-guessing activity, using a table of values to demonstrate the power of binary (bit) systems, a concept that would anchor the rest of his talk. Celebrating 100 years of quantum mechanics, Dr. Kim guided attendees through the historical evolution of the field, from foundational figures like De Broglie, Heisenberg, Schrödinger, and Bohr, to the major philosophical debates that shaped modern quantum theory. He emphasized concepts such as wave-particle duality, quantum superposition, and entanglement, weaving in famous thought experiments like Schrödinger’s cat and the EPR paradox. One particularly striking segment of the seminar addressed the first and second quantum revolutions. The first revolution laid the foundation for our understanding of atomic structures and gave rise to transformative technologies like semiconductors and lasers. The second quantum revolution, as Dr. Kim explained, focuses on quantum information science, including quantum computing, quantum cryptography, and quantum sensing. Dr. Kim highlighted the contributions of John Bell and the 1964 proposal of Bell’s inequality, a pivotal moment that led to experimental tests confirming quantum mechanics' predictions and opening the door to quantum information science. From quantum cryptography to quantum radar and quantum imaging, Dr. Kim introduced a wide range of applications that are no longer science fiction but are rapidly emerging areas of research. He also explained the basic building blocks of quantum computing, such as qubits, Hadamard gates, and the Schrödinger equation, contrasting classical digital computing with the probabilistic and multidimensional nature of quantum systems. The seminar concluded with a lively Q&A session, where Dr. Kim addressed questions with clarity and enthusiasm, leaving students and faculty inspired and curious about the possibilities of the quantum future.
