Dr. Monojit Mitra did his B.Tech., M.Tech. & Ph.D. from the Department of Radiophysics & Electronics under Calcutta University in the year 1982, 1985-1986, and 1995, respectively. He joined as Lecturer in the Department of Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering of IIEST Shibpur (formerly B.E. College) in the year 1995 and became Professor in the same department in the year 2011. He served the department as Head from 2012-2014 and once again from 2016-2018. He had also served the institute at different capacity such as Head of the Department of Purabi Das School of Information Technology (PDSIT) of IIEST, Shibpur. His main area of research is on semiconductor microwave devices, especially IMPATT. He had fabricated and characterized IMPATT diode at Xband for the first time in India. He had published four books such as "Satellite Communication (2nd Ed.)," "Microwave Engineering (3rd Ed.)," Microwave Semiconductor Devices," and "Electronic Circuits" from the house of Prentice Hall. So far he had published about 80 research papers in different SCI indexed journals. Till now 15 students have got their Ph.D. degree under his supervision and 5 are continuing. He is Member of different prestigious societies like IEEE, Life Member of IETE, etc. Prof. Mita Nasipuri received her B.E. and M.E. degrees in Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering from Jadavpur University, Kolkata, India, in 1979 and 1981, respectively, and did her Ph.D. degree in Engineering from Jadavpur University, in 1990. She is currently Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Jadavpur University. From July 2004 to July 2006, she was Head of the Computer Science and Engineering Department, Jadavpur University. She has also served as Member of various UG/PG syllabus committees and the Doctoral committee of Engineering faculty of Jadavpur University. Since 2008, she is serving as Coordinator of Centre for Microprocessor Applications for Training Education and Research of Jadavpur University. Her research interest includes biomedical signal processing, image processing, pattern recognition, bioinformatics, medical image analysis, and multi-media system. She has authored or co-authored more than 500 research articles including several book chapters, out of which, more than 100 papers have been published in science citation indexed (SCI/SCIE) technical journals. Two US patents have been granted on her work. She has supervised more than 22 Ph.D. students. She has been granted sponsored projects by the Govt. of India with a total amount of around INR 1.5 Crore. She is Fellow of Institution of Engineers (India) and West Bengal Academy of Science and Technology, India. She is also Senior Member of the IEEE, USA, since 1992. Prof. M. R. Kanjilal is currently holding the post of Principal of Narula Institute of Technology and also Professor of Department of Electronics & Communication Engineering. She did her UG and PG from Calcutta University. She has been awarded Ph.D. from Calcutta University in 2000. She has more than 22 years of teaching experience. She has more than 100 published papers in national and international journals and conferences. She has 6 Ph.D. scholars and has published two patents and one is filed. She is the author of two books on Basic Electronics and one book on Analog Electronics. Her subject interest is on high-power and high-frequency (MM-wave - THz region) operation of wide-bandgap semiconductor devices, Group IV-IV, III-V material-based devices, superlattice-based devices, applications of these devices in the medical arena, nanoscale devices: design and develop, heterostructure and heterojunction semiconductor devices, microelectronics fabrication, low power devices, VLSI circuits, nanodevices, spintronics, and quantum computing.
