Benjamin completed his B.S. in Food Science in 2016 at Tunghai University in Taiwan. He had a national certificate of food science technician issued by Taiwanese government after graduation. He then continued his master at National Chung Hsing University in Food Processing Program, and graduated in 2018. Benjamin is interested in carbohydrate research, in particular, the physicochemical properties. He joined in Grain Science at Kansas State University for doctoral degree program in 2021 for two years before he started his Ph.D program at the University of Minnesota in Food Science Program in fall 2023, specializing in physical chemistry of food materials science toward processing design. His research is about the modeling and mapping of the dairy materials of their phase transition at high solid state, as well as the state diagram such as crystallization kinetics with the thermodynamic theory applied. Apart from the academic works, Benjamin had an experience of serving as a social chair and marketing chair at the International Coordinating Council when he was at K-State, as well as the President of Taiwanese Student Association for a year. He enjoys traveling around the world and experiencing the cultural differences. Being a photographer and doing outdoor activities are always his things.
