About

Seoncheol Park

Now I am an assistant professor at the Department of Mathematics and the Department of Applied Statistics at Hanyang University, South Korea. Before joining Hanyang University, I worked as an assistant professor at the Department of Information Statistics, Chungbuk National University for two years. Also, I was a post-doctoral research fellow at the Pacific Climate Impacts Consortium under the supervision of Prof. Francis Zwiers. I received my Ph.D. degree in statistics at Seoul National University under the supervision of Prof. Hee-Seok Oh. I was also a member of Multiscale Methods in Statistics Lab.
