A research team at Stanford recently used Scopus data to evaluate the life-long accomplishment sector and 2019 yearly achievement sector to publish a list of the top 2% scientist list for academic sectors in the entire world. Scopus is the world’s largest academic journal citation index database created by the publishing company Elsevier of the Netherlands in 2004.
The research team evaluated researchers who published at least five theses in each academic sector based on a total of six index values, and provided information of the top researchers per sector in the database.
Professor Jung was included in the top 2% of the 21,274 researchers who published more than five theses in the ‘logistics and transportation’ sector. There were only two domestic researchers included in the top 2% in the ‘logistics and transportation’ sector, and when excluding the researcher in the logistics sector, Professor Jung is the only Korean included in the ‘traffic’ sector.
