Shin Won Kim, graduated with a chemistry degree. After spending a few months working as a consultant in a healthcare consulting firm, Kim started to consider pursuing a Master’s in the Erasmus Mundus programs. She came across an opportunity in the University of Poitiers to join the first cohort of the Erasmus Mundus program in Sustainable Catalysis.
Sustainability and health has always been a topic that Kim wanted to focus on. Now, she is learning more about sustainability and green chemistry. Her course in Sustainable Catalysis aims at ensuring the use and development of eco-friendly chemical materials, reactions and processes through the use of catalysts. After completing the required seminars for the course, Kim will be applying her knowledge on Sustainable Catalysis in an internship after which she will continue on with her specialization.
