Professor In-ho Jung  Receives TMS ‘Sadoway Materials Innovation and Advocacy Award’

Prof. In-Ho Jung has been selected as the 2025 recipient of the Sadoway Materials Innovation and Advocacy Award by The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society (TMS).

Professor Jung received this award in recognition of his contributions to the development of innovative materials and sustainable processes through the development of materials thermodynamics databases and education. His research has focused on developing thermodynamic databases of metallic and ceramic materials and using them for material design and process optimization, steel manufacturing process design, and development of carbon neutral process technologies.

“I am deeply grateful for the recognition of my efforts in developing thermodynamic databases for materials over the past 20 years, and in educating and disseminating them to materials researchers around the world,” said Professor Jung. ”I plan to continue my research and education to help academia and industry use thermodynamic calculations to design innovative and sustainable materials and processes.”
