He further earned his PhD in 1996.
Okojie joined the silicon carbide research group at NASA's Glenn Research Center in Cleveland in 1999.
He holds over 20 patents relating to high-temperature devices, including several licenses for commercial use that could reduce spacecraft weight, and thereby launch cost and fuel consumption, while leaving additional space for scientific payloads.
He demonstrated the world's first thermally stable ohmic contact metallization on silicon carbide at record-breaking temperatures for extended periods of time.
Paving way for high temperature sensors and electronics at these temperatures that can substantially improve safety and efficiency, as well as directly impacting the air quality around airports.
He equally developed the first accelerated stress test protocol published in the IEEE international Reliability Physics Symposium.
Scientist of the Year by the National Technical Association for advancing the state-of-the-art of MEMS for use in harsh environments and in 2007 was a recipient of the Cleveland Executive Board Wings of Excellence award.
Okojie has received accolades, including in 2009 the NASA Abe Silverstein Medal for Research and in 2012 the Glenn Research Distinguished Publication Award.
