Jaepil Jang     Please refer to my CV for details        

I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Engineering at the University of Central Florida, where I work with Professor Mingyo Seo. My research interests include humanoid robotics, whole-body control, and vision-language-action (VLA) models. My work focuses on developing learning frameworks for long-horizon loco-manipulation in cluttered environments.

Before joining the University of Central Florida, I worked as a Research Scientist at the Humanoid Robotics Laboratory, Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST), under the supervision of Dr. Yonghwan Oh. I received my M.S. degree in Interdisciplinary Robot Systems from Hanyang University, Seoul, Republic of Korea, in 2025, under the supervision of Professor Wansoo Kim, and my B.S. degree in Robotics Engineering from Hanyang University, Ansan, Republic of Korea, in 2023.
