Kim Min Joo, a student in the Department of Commerce and Finance at our university, won the Excellence Award at the 2025 10th Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Paper Contest. The contest was hosted by the Korean Agency for Technology and Standards by the Korean Standards Association and the Society for Standards, Certification and Safety and Certification.

This contest was held to establish effective Trade Technical Barriers (TBT) response strategies at a time when the global trade environment is rapidly changing and technical regulations are becoming increasingly complex.

Student Kim Min Joo wrote her paper on the topic, “Analysis of the WTO TBT Agreement Compliance of EU Supply Chain Due Diligence Regulations: Focusing on CSDDD in the Battery Industry.”
