Noori Kim

Dr Noori Kim is an assistant professor at Newcastle University in Singapore (NUIS) in the Electrical and Electronic Engineering department and a chair of IEEE Women in Engineering Singapore Affinity group. She worked at the Digipen Institute of Technology Singapore in the Electrical and Computer Engineering department prior to joining the NUIS. She has extensive experience in Electrical/Electronics/Computer engineering teachings from fundamental to practical topics.

Dr Kim graduated with a PhD from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) in Electrical and Computer Engineering (thesis title: Analysis and measurement of anti-reciprocal systems). Then she served as a research fellow in the Mechanical and Aerospace engineering department at Nanyang Technological University (Singapore) for a year. Dr Kim received her BS and MS degrees in Computer Science from Ewha Woman’s University in South Korea. During her two years of MS degree study (medical image processing lab, MS thesis title: Microscopy image segmentation for cell viability analysis), she was invited to the Fraunhofer Institute for Computer Graphics Research IGD in Darmstadt, Germany, as a short-term visiting scholar. Her other accomplishments include research at Stanford University’s Department of Medicine in 2007 as a visiting scholar.

She has taught courses such as Computer Environments (computer architecture, ARM Assembly programming), Embedded Microcontroller Systems (ARM C programming), Electric Circuits, Analogue Electronics, Digital Electronics I (Digital logics and labs), Digital Electronics II (VHDL, FPGA), Project and Career Professional Development, Embedded Systems and Industrial Internet Of Things (IIoT), Work and Integrated Study Program (Internship), and Final Year Projects, Capstone projects.

Based on her multidisciplinary background, her general research interests are Hearing Mechanics, Future Healthcare, MEMS, Electromagnetics, Acoustics, and Embedded Systems (IoT), which spans computer, electrical, and mechanical engineering systems.
