Dr. Praveen Sathiyamoorthi
Dr. Praveen Sathiyamoorthi joined the Department of Metallurgical Engineering at IIT (BHU) Varanasi as an Assistant Professor in March 2022. His current research interests include the deformation behavior of metallic materials and the development of high-performance alloys for extreme environments.
He completed his BE in Metallurgical Engineering from the Government College of Engineering, Salem, in 2009. His research career began with an eight-week summer internship in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at IISc Bangalore in 2008. Dr. Sathiyamoorthi later pursued a dual degree (MS & PhD) in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering at IIT Madras, which he completed in 2016. Afterward, he was awarded the prestigious Korea Research Fellowship (KRF, now Brain Pool Fellow) for postdoctoral research at Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH) in South Korea, where he worked from 2017 to 2022. Additionally, he received the POSTECH Initiative for Fostering the Unicorn of Research and Innovation (PIURI) Fellowship from 2020 to 2022.
His research group focuses on the development of concentrated alloys using a multi-principal element design approach to achieve properties that surpass those of conventional materials.
