- New faculty member in our department: Assistant Professor Jong Won Ma
- The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering is pleased to announce that Dr. Jong Won Ma has joined the faculty as an Assistant Professor in the field of Smart City Infrastructure as of September 2025. Dr. Ma received his B.S. (2016) and M.S. (2018) degrees from Yonsei University, and subsequently earned his Ph.D. in Construction Engineering and Project Management (CEPM) from the University of Texas at Austin in 2022. Following his doctoral studies, he joined Concordia University in Montreal, Canada, where he offered courses in BIM, project management, surveying, and engineering management, supporting students in both academic and practical development. Dr. Ma’s primary research interests include Scan-to-BIM and digital twin technologies applying computer vision and artificial intelligence, smart cities, and digitalization for the circular economy. He is also engaged in research on Advanced Work Packaging, facility management, and disaster resilience within construction projects. Based on these research themes, he has published more than 15 papers in leading international journals such as Automation in Construction, Journal of Computing in Civil Engineering, and Advanced Engineering Informatics. His notable contributions include automated Scan-to-BIM using low-cost 3D scanning, community disaster resilience perception analysis, and point-cloud–based structural monitoring of buildings. Dr. Ma is currently recruiting master’s and doctoral students to conduct research on digital twinning and construction automation using Artificial Intelligence and Computer Vision. Opportunities will be available to students with strong interests in Python and deep learning libraries (PyTorch, TensorFlow), as well as those with knowledge in Building Information Modeling and Digitalization. For those who are interested in joining Dr. Ma's lab, please visit his lab website- https://sites.google.com/view/ationlab. The appointment of Dr. Ma is expected to greatly strengthen the department’s global competitiveness in smart city infrastructure, construction automation, and digital twin research. We kindly ask for your warm welcome and continued support.
