Seok-Woo received 2019 UConn Mentorship Excellence Award from Office of Undergraduate Research (04/12/2019).

This award results from undergraduate research with Hetal Patel (Class of 2019) for the last four years. Hetal has studied deformation mechanisms of superelastic material (CaFe2As2) and single crystal tungsten.

She recently accepted the admission offer from the MSE department at UC Berkeley. She also received the NSF graduate student fellowship and the NDSEG fellowship. Both are very prestigious awards for a prospective PhD student.

I really appreciate all her excellent efforts and wish her a very successful career at UC Berkeley!

Hetal’s award speech is available at the website of Office of Undergraduate Research.

Also, the MSE department news highlighted this news at the MSE department webpage.
