Top SchoolSangwoo Park is an Assistant Professor at NJIT with a decade of experience developing algorithms for large-scale optimization, particularly applied to electric power systems. He earned his Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering and Operations Research from UC Berkeley, where his dissertation and projects spanned homotopy methods for post-contingency optimal power flow, uniqueness and topology-based analysis of power flow solutions, and robust state estimation. Sangwoo combines rigorous theoretical analysis with practical transmission planning and scenario-reduction work, informed by prior research roles at Johns Hopkins and hands-on engineering in international development. His background includes leadership and mentoring through professional organizations and an unusual early-career mix of military service and sustainable infrastructure work in rural South Africa, reflecting both discipline and commitment to real-world impact.
