Dr.Amitava DasGupta received the B.E. degree in Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering from Jadavpur University,Kolkata, India in 1982, M.Tech degree in Electrical Engineering from I.I.T. Madras in 1984 and Ph.D from I.I.T. Kharagpur in 1988. His Ph.D dissertation was on analytical modeling of small geometry MOSFETs with non-uniformly doped channels. He joined as a Lecturer in I.I.T. Kharagpur in the same year. He has been a Faculty member in the Department of Electrical Engineering, I.I.T. Madras since 1993 and is currently a Professor. As a DAAD Fellow, he worked at the Institut für Hochfrequenztechnik, Darmstadt, Germany during 1991-92 and again in 1997. His research interests are in the areas of Semiconductor Device Modeling and Technology and as well as MEMS. He has supervised 25 research scholars for their M.S. (by research) / Ph.D degrees. He has more than 150 research publications in International Journals and Proceedings of International Conferences and has Co-authored a book on Semiconductor Devices – Modeling & Technology.He is an Editor of the IETE Technical Review and ISSS Journal of Micro and Smart Systems.He is a Fellow of Indian National Academy of Engineering (INAE).
