Mrityunjoy Chakraborty received Bachelor of Engg. in Electronics and Telecommunication Engg. from Jadavpur University, Kolkata (1983), Master of Technology (1985) and Doctor of Philosophy (1994) both in Electrical Engg. respectively from Indian Institute of Technology at Kanpur and Delhi. He joined the department of Electronics and Electrical Communication Engg. at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur as a lecturer in 1994 and is currently a higher academic grade professor in the same department, with teaching and research interests in digital and adaptive signal processing, VLSI signal processing, linear algebra and compressive sensing.
Prof. Chakraborty is a Fellow of the National Academy of Sciences (NASI), India, and also of the Indian National Academy of Engineering (INAE). He is the recipient of the prestigious Chair Professorship of the INAE and is currently the Prithviraj and Swati Banerjee Chair Professor of the institute. He served the DSP technical committee of the IEEE Circuits and Systems society as the Chair during 2016-2018, beside serving the editorial board of several prestigious journals and technical program committee of many reputed international conferences. During 2012-2013, he was selected as a Distinguished Lecturer of the Asia Pacific Signal and Information Processing Association (APSIPA).KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
