A ceremony is held to present certificates of the 'Kim Su Jeong Scholarship'
 
[2016.04.11]
 
At 5 p.m. on April 11th, a ceremony was held in Yulgok Hall's Conference Room 1 at Ajou University to present certificates of the 'Kim Su Jeong Scholarship.'
 
 
The ceremony was attended by Ho Yeong Suh, mother of the late Su Jeong Kim, ten scholarship students, Vice President for Planning, Vice President for Student Affairs, and directors and other officials from the students' departments, etc.
 
 
Mrs. Suh gave certificates of scholarships and words of encouragement to the students and the representative of the students gave back a flower bouquet and read words of appreciation. The ten students received a total of fifteen million won, with 1.5 million won given to each of them. The scholarship students are Hyeon Yeong Kim (Department of Chemical Engineering), Hyeon Do Kim (Department of Materials Science and Engineering), Da Ye Kim (Department of Materials Science and Engineering), Mi Ji Kim (Department of Architecture), Jin Ho Choi (Department of Mathematics), Jeong Gu Choi (Department of Physics), Geon Hong Choi (Department of e-Business), Eun Taek Lim (Department of Psychology), Seok Yeong Koh (Department of Medical Sciences), and Min Gyu Lee (Department of Medical Sciences).
 
 
The 'Kim Su Jeong Scholarship' was established in 2015 when Kim's father Jung Gweon Kim (entering class of 1973, Ajou's Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering) and his wife donated 300 million won in scholarships to the University in accordance with the wishes of their late daughter after she died from lymphatic cancer in October 2014. The scholarship funds are awarded each semester to two students in the School of Medicine wishing to major in lymphatic cancer, one student from Ajou’s Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC), and seven students in difficult financial conditions.
 
 
In her words of encouragement, Mrs. Suh said, "I am pleased that the scholarship was created under my daughter's name and the funds are presented each semester. It is even more meaningful because this is based on my daughter's wishes."
