Professor Seung-Bok Choi (MEC) has placed in the top 0.05% of all scholars worldwide via Highly Ranked Scholars™, which ranks the most productive authors whose works are of profound impact (citations) and of utmost quality (h-index). Enabled by the generation of over 30 million detailed scholar profiles based on unique ScholarGPS™, classification of over 200 million scholarly publications of record into one of over 350,000 distinct Specialties, 177 Disciplines, and 14 Fields, Highly Ranked Scholars™ are, for the first time, identified within each Specialty, Discipline, and all Fields. Highly Ranked Scholars™ are those with ScholarGPS™ Ranks of 0.05% or better. The data are based on lifetime activity, weighting each publication and citation by the number of authors and excluding self-citations.
According to the analysis of the 177 Disciplines, The World Rank of Professor Choi is #188 in Mechanical Engineering, and the ranks of his specific fields are evaluated as follows: Vibration Control #1, Smart Material #3 and Optimal Design #15.
He is still actively serving as a journal editor for more than 15 international journals (SCI), including Smart Materials and Structures, Scientific Report and the Journal of Intelligent Material Systems and Structures. The number of his publications to date is 890, based on Web of Science. Currently, he is a senior fellow of both the Korean Academy of Science and Technology (KAST) and the National Academy of Engineering of Korea (NAEK).

The Role of Genetics in the Academic Success of College Students The relationship between genetics and personal traits such as skin color, height, eye color, and health risks are well understood. However, the relationship between genetics and academic success is less clear. It has been the subject of many new research studies. All research, in general, agrees that many factors, including environmental influences, socioeconomic background, personal motivation, and genetic predispo
Professor Jongseong Brad Choi of the Mechanical Engineering Department at SUNY Korea has been selected for the “Outstanding Young Researcher Program” under the Ministry of Science and ICT’s Basic Research Support Initiative for 2025. This year's selection was highly competitive, with the number of awarded projects reduced by half compared to the previous year. With this selection, SUNY Korea has secured a total of 1.25 billion KRW in funding over five years.
