Early life and education

Das was born in Puri, Odisha. He received his BS (with honors) in 1972 and MS in 1974 in physics from the University of Delhi.[1] He received his PhD from SUNY Stony Brook in 1977.

Career

He was a research associate at the City College of New York, the University of Maryland and Rutgers University before joining the University of Rochester in 1982. He was promoted to professor in 1993 and is still working there today.[2]

Das' research is in the area of theoretical high energy physics.[3]

In 2002, Das was made a fellow of the American Physical Society "for contributions in the areas of supergravity, integrable models, and finite temperature field theory."[4]

In 2006, he was awarded a Fulbright scholarship to teach physics in Brazil.[5]

He has written books and monographs on various disciplines of theoretical physics at the advanced undergraduate and graduate level: A Path Integral Approach (World Scientific publishers), Finite Temperature Field Theory (World Scientific publishers), Integrable Models (World Scientific Lecture Notes in Physics), Lectures on Gravitation (World Scientific publishers), and Lectures on Electromagnetism.[6]
