Jungsoo Kim

Associate Professor Jungsoo Kim holds a position in the School of Architecture, Design and Planning at the University of Sydney, specializing in Building Science. His research focuses on occupant-building interactions, particularly how environmental factors influence user behavior and energy demand. He teaches courses in architectural science and building performance.

Key affiliations include membership in:

• NatHERS Technical Advisory Committee
• CSIRO's Thermostat Behavior Expert Group
• IEA-EBC Annexes 87, 69, and 66
• NABERS Technical Working Group
• International Society of Indoor Air Quality and Climate

Research interests span Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ), occupant behavior modeling, building performance assessment, and translating research into building codes. Recent grants include studies on decarbonizing multi-residential buildings and work-from-home environments' impact on productivity.

His lab, the IEQ Lab, explores acoustic comfort and thermal adaptation in workplaces and residential contexts. Notable work includes developing probabilistic behavioral models for HVAC usage and advancing adaptive thermal comfort theory.
