As a scheduling engineer and project planner, he worked on the construction of the Korea High-Speed Line (an 11 billion USD project) and other sizeable railway construction projects, cooperating with the staff of Bechtel, Inc.
Between 2011 and 2012, he studied for a master’s degree in Railway System Engineering and Integration at the University of Birmingham, UK. His master’s dissertation, entitled “Time Management in Railway Construction Projects”, explored efficient ways to develop and control the master schedule of railway construction projects, and earned him the University of Birmingham’s award for Best Technical Dissertation.
Based on his vast experience of project schedule planning and controlling, he published a book on the subject in 2014, entitled “How Railway Systems Work”, which introduces various basic knowledge of railway and railway construction project planning and controlling methods. The book was adopted as a textbook by Woosong University in South Korea.
In December 2014 and March 2015, he conducted lectures for government officials at the Egypt Railway School, which were organised by the Egyptian government. The theme of these lectures was managing construction schedules for efficient railway construction projects.
His current job involves managing the master schedule of the Enhancement Programme of the national railway infrastructure. He lives with his wife, son and daughter.ver menos
