Mijeong Kim is an Associate Professor in the Department of Statistics at the College of Natural Sciences, where she primarily teaches theoretical courses in statistics. Dr. Kim earned her PhD in Statistics from Texas A&M University. After completing her degree, she worked at Samsung Electronics Semiconductor for approximately two years, focusing on yield management and experimental design, before joining the Department of Statistics at Ewha Womans University.
Dr. Kim's main research areas include semiparametric methods, causal inference, and spatial data analysis. Her research has primarily focused on deriving more efficient estimators than those of parametric methods using semiparametric approaches. Recently, her research has shifted to applying causal inference techniques to spatial data analysis.
