Jae Min Jung

Dr. Jae Min Jung is a Professor of Marketing and the founding director of the Center for Customer Insights and Digital Marketing (CCIDM) at Cal Poly Pomona and director of the Master of Science in Digital Marketing Program. He received a Ph.D. in Marketing from the University of Cincinnati and an MBA degree with a concentration in Business Statistics from the University of North Texas. Dr. Jung’s research in his early career was focused on the impact of cultural values on various issues of consumer psychology and marketing, including marketing ethics and sales control, social influence (e.g., scarcity and authority strategies), consumers’ preference for unique products, consumers’ retail interaction style, information search and consideration set size, and product recall message. Another branch of his research was aimed to introduce State-Of-Origin effects and consumer reactions to the locally-made branding strategy. Later, his interests expanded to some of the consumer behaviors in tourism and hospitality -- destination marketing messages and apology timing in service failure and recovery for hotels and restaurants. More recently, he also investigated various digital marketing topics such as online advertising (i.e., interactive banners, game ads) and social media marketing. Currently, Dr. Jung is interested in applying econometrics and data science methods to consumer behaviors. His research has been published in renowned journals such as European Journal of Marketing, International Marketing Review, Journal of Business Research, Journal of Consumer Marketing, Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology, Journal of Personal Selling and Sales Management, Marketing Letters, Public Relations Review, and Psychology & Marketing. He is also a member of the editorial review board for the Journal of Business Research. Dr. Jung has been a member of various professional organizations, including the American Marketing Association and the Association for Consumer Research. He has also received numerous grants and awards on and off campus. Dr. Jung has taught various courses, including Data Mining for Marketing Decisions, Marketing Analytics, and Customer Insights Consultancy Program, and Data Wrangling and Visualization Certificate Program. His research and teaching efforts earned him recognition, including the prestigious Jagdish N. Sheth Best Research Award, the Wall of COOL, the Teacher-Scholar Program Award, and the Faculty of the Year Award. Prior to returning to academia, he worked at Hankook Tire Manufacturing, Inc.
