 My first small step in my career was entering into mechanical engineering to obtain my bachelor's degree in Korea. My second small step was entering graduate school to obtain my master's degree from Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology. My third small step, actually it was turned out to be a big step later, was attending Purdue University to obtain my PhD degree. One giant leap in my career was becoming a senior vice president at Samsung Electronics where I led laundry product R&D for 11 years. My name is Sungjin Kim. I got my PhD degree in mechanical engineering at Purdue in 1991. I am a Purdue engineer.
