Education

edit

Chung went to Yushin High School, a private high school in Suwon, entering in 1974. He focused on natural science. Entering Seoul National University in 1978, he majored in mathematics with an emphasis on partial differential equations for his PhD.[4]

Career

edit

After graduation, he was an assistant professor at Duksung Women's University followed by an associate professor and then full professor at Sogang University.[5] From 2000, he held other positions at Sogang, including head of the Department of Mathematics, director of the Research Institute for Basic Science,[6] dean of academic affairs, director of the Teaching and Learning Center,[7][8] dean of the College of Natural Science.[9]

His service to the Korean Mathematical Society included director of the 42nd Math Olympiad,[10] organizer,[11] editing executive director,[12] and vice president.[13] For a two-year term starting in 2007, he headed the Mathematical Sciences Division at the National Research Foundation of Korea.
