His academic background is theoretical physics, having earned his BS (1991) and MS (1994) degrees in South Korea. Professor Kim received the National Science Foundation (NSF) Early CAREER Award in 2005, which supports early-career faculty who have the potential to serve as academic role models in research and education. He has also been honored with the Excellence Medals in Research (2006) and Teaching (2017) from the Board of Regents of the University of Hawaiʻi system, which are the two most prestigious awards for faculty at the university. He has published over 70 peer-reviewed journal articles that cover rigorous theories and innovative simulations in various areas of environmental and chemical engineering, with a focus on computational fluid and particle dynamics, membrane separations, and renewable desalination. Additionally, he has edited three books and authored six chapters related to engineering sciences and applied mathematics. As a principal investigator, Professor Kim has led a cross-disciplinary NSF project that integrates cultural psychology, Hawaiian studies, and engineering disciplines to design a pioneering paradigm for engineering education tailored to students from Hawaiʻi culture.
