Debjani Chakraborty

I am a Professor at the Department of Mathematics at the IIT Kharagpur. Before 2005 I was in Vinod Gupta School of Management (VGSoM) for a span of 8 years, initially started as a DST GoI Young Scientist (Principal Investigator with my own project), subsequently as a Visiting Faculty and and after that as an Assistant Professor. Prior to July 1997 I also worked in some research projects in Reliability Engineering Centre (presently upgraded as Subir Chowdhury School of Quality and Reliability). I am an alumni of Department of Mathematics, IIT Kharagpur. I joined the department in 1989 as a MSc Student. I got my Ph.D. in 1995 under the auspicious supervision of Prof. JR Rao and Prof RN Tiwari.
